Trust Your Heart.
You are already doing everything – the loud voice is only the mind; the heart is calm and knows the way.
There had been a stretch of loud days – the job question, the what-ifs, the mind running its circles – and under all of it a quieter suspicion that I was actually doing fine. I asked whether they were still there at all.
The answer is the calmest kind of yes: always here, not always in the same way. And then it points at the noise: only the mind is loud – in its despair, in its fear. The heart is calm, and it already knows. "Heart" watched the same difference from the working day's side: same work, different day – what changed was the heart.
If your head has been loud lately, read this one slowly. It is short, and it knows it.
Dear traveler,
Yes, we are still here. We will always be here. With you. Not always in the same way, perhaps – but always with you. For we are you, and you are we. Right now you do not need many words, because you are doing what feels right for you. You feel your inner urge and give it room. You let it happen through you. You create. So you are simply you. More is not needed. Except – remember: No expectation. No wanting. Asking for a step: yes. But be without expectation there too. You feel your inner calm. Only your mind is loud right now. In its despair. In its fear. Your heart is calm. It feels that you are on the right way. Trust your heart.
Thank you for being here.
If something in these letters stayed with you, take it along – think about it, write your own answer, or just let it sit.
And if not today, that's okay too. There's no rush.
Until next time,
– Jan
