Marose4 months agoMaroseI find meaning in every little thing that I do for this is the only way I can appreciate my life more. This is where gratitude can stem out. The moment we understand why things happen, the ripple effect of gratitude takes place. 1 Reply sparrow4 months agosparrow. . . the moment when my soul connects with another, be it a smile, a gesture, a touch . . . 3 Reply Kate4 months agoKateI find moments of heart opening and meaning in silence and when things get very hard, so hard, that I think I cannot handle what is coming at me, and then I do, and it’s my heart that allows this. 1 Reply Malag4 months agoMalagIn moments of silence where there is no distraction. That seems to make some sense for me. 3 Reply Gaby González4 months agoGaby GonzálezWhen my intentions, words and actions are in tune with my heart 🙏 4 Reply MEG4 months agoMEGMy heart finds meaning in moments of joy, peace, love and gratitude. 4 Reply ADP4 months agoADPMy heart finds meaning each and every day either through teaching or interacting with children. It also finds meaning through days of being home amongst the trees and nature. My heart needs to expand and find meaning in others areas of my life though. My heart needs to be at peace with my mind and my thoughts, if I can channel my thoughts and be at peace in my mind my heart can find much more meaning, and positive energy can flow freely through my heart. 8 Reply Ose4 months agoOseWhen serving others daily or like recently, when I even could be of service during an acute heart attack of one of my friends; when being with dear ones; when cooking together; when reading something that opens my mind to awareness; when stillness opens; when meeting the eyes of a stranger, or friend, or loved one and for a moment, realizing the spark we share. 6 Reply MbCP4 months agoMbCPBeing heard and recognized 5 Reply Blossom4 months agoBlossomgiving and receiving love 6 Reply Linda4 months agoLindaWhen I am helping others. 4 Reply Emmaleah4 months agoEmmaleahThose moments when I remember how blessed I truly am. As the single mother of a special needs child, life can often feel quite overwhelming. I try not to let that feeling govern me, but it is a struggle. However, the truly meaningful and magical moments are those when I take a step back and realize how lucky I am; how grateful I am for my son and for my supportive family. 7 Reply Melissa4 months agoMelissaWhen my dog puts his head in my lap to take a nap. When my husband pulls me over for a kiss. When a friend gives me a call. When I can feel the trees send their vibrant love. 10 Reply Don Jones4 months agoDon JonesI am not sure my heart needs to find meaning. It just needs to be fully expressed. 6 Reply QUERUBE CONTE4 months agoQUERUBE CONTECuando trabajo, estando presente para el otro con amor 6 Reply Michele4 months agoMicheletranslation- When I work, being present for the other with love 3 Reply Mary Pat4 months agoMary PatThank you, Michele! 2 Reply Charlie T4 months agoCharlie TWhen I can share my true thoughts and feelings with others and they feel safe to share with me.

I am satisfied in my heart and mind, when I have interactions where there is real connection and an exchange that benefits both of us. As with my ESL students at school. For example, reading about Dr. King on Friday with my Ethiopian student, before the MLK Jr. holiday today, and then hearing him spontaineously share about what he learned with his classmates.

I am satisfied in my heart and mind, when I have interactions where there is real connection and an exchange that benefits both of us. As with my ESL students at school. For example, reading about Dr. King on Friday with my Ethiopian student, before the MLK Jr. holiday today, and then hearing him spontaineously share about what he learned with his classmates. Or connecting again with a friend in the UK, who I have known since childhood, but been out of touch with during the tumult of this past pandemic year, and sharing how life has been for us…. very satisfying. And always, always having my heart lifted by some aspect of nature when I go outside. Like yesterday, seeing to my delight, that the lake at the bottom of the hill was frozen into a sleek sheet of ice, and the neighborhood was out skating. I could hear the ice humming, and hear the calls of the young people and the sounds of the hockey sticks hitting the puck. Did my “heart find meaning?” My heart found delight, really.

So many neurons! 6 Reply Mica4 months agoMicaAh yes – I’ve been moving my awareness to the brain [in a thought-less way] and away from the gut, and that seems to be helping. 4 Reply Elle4 months agoElleWhen I truly live from my heart & believe from my best to ripple out to the world, whether I'm with others or on my own- that gives my heart meaning. As I face my worldly challenges, unfortunately fear can creep in to my atmosphere. But when I remember I come from Universal Light & Love and I want for good.....it's so cool to feel pent up energies release, it feels like I'm being held in peace. That's when even the mundane tasks can bring meaning from my heart.

Reading Kristi N.’s words about grateful living…..looking at various as , “what I get to do”, rather than- what I have to do (thank you) it’s appreciated…..that assists with opening my heart to meaning as well.
