The Things That Really Matter

I think the things that really matter are the things that come from your heart.

The ones that tug continuously and so effortlessly, yet even then, we can still ignore them.

One of my favorite things about being a writer, whether I write for myself or others, is that I get to share a piece of my heart within every article, story, or caption that I share.

And sometimes I don’t even realize what I write until it all comes out on paper.

Every piece that I have written was an inspiration that came to me when I felt calm and soulful.

When I felt free of the time and space of where I was right then and there.

And, if you look closely enough, within the words that I got down on paper, you can find these delicate little pieces of wisdom that pop up- something that sparked a light in you.

And what light was that? Why does it resonate with you?

I think the most impactful writing pieces are the ones that come from the heart, in the smallest or the largest form. Maybe the writer didn’t intend an impact at all, but because it came from their heart it’s helped you tap into your own soul. No matter what adjective you would use to describe an article- it was written from and by the soul itself. And, impact is impact for someone, somewhere.

Each of us wants to make some kind of impact, whether it’s a .01% or 100% the feeling persists.

We want to show the world that we were here and that we too played an important part. We too changed the world in some way. Even if it was tiny. After all, impact is impact- no matter how big or small.

So,

When in doubt, go from the heart.

When in doubt, always come from a place of what your heart wants, no matter the circumstances.

And the things that come from our hearts will fulfill that impact need that you may yearn for.

It just asks that you live and speak truly from your heart’s desires, which of course is just your soul speaking to you and reminding you who you are.
