If the natural state for a human being is to experience fulfilment, love, gratitude, wisdom and abundance — because that is how we feel when we are connected in our heart — then any time we don’t feel like this means that we have disconnected. When we get out of the heart, we experience emotions: positive and negative emotions.

If you feel lonely, sad, angry, afraid, low self-esteem, betrayed or any other emotions, it is because you are not in your heart. You have not seen the perfect balance of support and challenge and you don’t have gratitude.

If you are seeing more negative than positives in the situation: you don’t have the big picture, otherwise you would be grateful. The same goes when you experience positive emotions like excitement, infatuation and elation. This happens when you see more positive than negative, which again comes from not seeing the full picture.

As human beings we often like experiencing intense emotion. We may want to feel anger or sadness, for example, as we consider them normal or righteous. They feel good to the ego but not to the heart. They make us feel empty in the long run. There is nothing wrong with wanting to experience big highs, just as long as you know that sooner or later you will experience big lows. When you come from the heart, it is centred — it’s calm and joyful but without a big high.

You feel grateful even when life sends you challenges because you know that they are there to bring the best out of you.

Love & Light,
