Following your heart...

It is Valentines Day, February 14th 2010.
What "love" do you have?


My love is when I get to see one of my college kids on Skype,

even if they are showing me stitches from the night before.:(


My heart is full and empty,

happy
and sad, up and down.
I miss my kids...

We all do not know why we are here,

but we do know this is where we are suppose
to be
at this time in our lives.


Have I followed my heart to Doha?

I would have to say yes I did.
I followed my LOVE to Doha and my heart came along.


For me, I have a love I am forever thankful for.
"Mr. Smooth" some call him, today with a sore hamstring.

20 something years of a sweetheart that is ever growing...
He makes everything alright. No matter where my heart decides to wonder...
My sweet Chris the Gentle heart.


I have followed my heart and it brought me here and
I am fortunate, lucky and thankful.


But what advice do you tell your kids
about following their heart?


At any given moment, one of the four is trying to decide
whether or not to follow their head, or their heart?

Sometimes we have to do both...


Nicholas ~
I am so proud of you for really trying so hard to follow your heart. I believe in you and
believe your world
will be a better place because you seek it...
The Happy heart.

Amanda ~
You will find the right path soon to follow once college is over and real life kicks in...
You will find joy in your heart,
because you create it...
The Joyous heart
.

Alexandra ~ Following your heart will be harder because you think so logically your brain overrides your heart, which is something we can all learn a lot from...
The Sensible heart.

Ashlynn ~
Sometimes following your heart is hard. Nobody ever said it was going to be easy...That is when your brain has to take over.

Consult with sister #2...
The Young heart.

Today I wish for my children and all my family and friends

a moment to pause

and really ask yourself

"Am I following my heart?"

And if you can say "yes" to that -
rejoice, you are lucky...

And if you say "no",

then change something.


Following mine today,
Sher
