The mind and the heart are powerful. Without them, where would be in life? I know for a fact that I wouldn't be pursuing my passions. No one would be able to get anywhere without the power of the mind and the heart and I strongly believe that.
If I was unable to engage my mind, I would be unable to write and if I didn't have this power I really do not know what I would do. One thing I love, more than anything in the world is hearing and seeing people express themselves through the power of words. Yesterday, I was fortunate enough to discuss the power of reading, writing and music with some inspirational young people. They were timid and were in a situation where they felt as though they didn't have the strength to speak due to them being in a new environment. Yet, when I tried to spark some conversation with them they used their minds and engaged themselves with me. They used their hearts and spoke about their passions and hearing them discuss the stories they are in the process of writing about magic and monsters, I was captivated by the passion and the initial creativity. Moments before, they were incredibly shy and now moments later (considering I was a complete stranger to them) they had opened up to me and without them realising they had expressed the powers that they have to find a release from everyday life.
Last night, I was also lucky enough to watch people that I hold very close to my heart dance. That is their escape. The art of movement and the ways in which you can intrigue an audience and get them to feel something. They utilise their hearts and minds to adapt a move or enable themselves to actually dance from the word go. The evening enabled lots of money to be raised for a charity that a lady had started up. She came on stage and spoke at the end and expressed her feelings towards why she started up the charity to support young Afghan refugees in their education in Pakistan. If we didn't have people like this in the world, using their mind and heart to do something for others then I know that it would be a struggle to find some good in the world.
If we were unable to use our hearts and minds then it would be a struggle to find creativity, something that enables us to achieve.
Our minds and hearts make or break us and our creative juices push us that bit further.
I had to write this after being provided with some inspiration.
