your heart...

“There's nothing more inspiring than the complexity and beauty of the human heart.”  
(Cynthia Hand, Hallowed)

...according to webMD & sciencekids...your heart beats about 100,000 times everyday; that laughter is the best medicine for your heart because it causes it to pump more blood throughout your body...it is one of the most important organs in your body & it has  4 parts to it...and when you place your hand over your heart or your fingers to your neck or wrist you hear a beat...that is your heart letting you know you are alive but more importantly that...

...your heart is so much more it is the way we see things & hold on to what is important & just when we think our hearts cannot hold any more love; someone new comes into our life and our heart grows...it is the place where we hold memories...it is the being that writhes in pain when we or the ones we love hurt...it is forever a reminder of how amazing life is...it allows us to believe in the miracles, & know that by this organ, this thing in our body, our life would not exist; nor those that  surround us...our heart holds so much that once you open it up it can tell its own story...it bleeds with joy, with happiness, with sadness, with pain, with life, with sorrow, with any & all emotions...it is us...& to know our heart is to know us...

...so be thankful, feel blessed that you have a heart...be glad that when you feel it beat; you know its beating for a reason...
