Writings: Tell me, dear heart

There are a number of places the discussion begins – sometimes we have an idea, sometimes we just gotta do something , and all the possibilities in between – but I love that amazing place where you say the thing my heart was ready for, and my mind embraces, and my legs are ready to run the extra kilometre for.

I hope you keep telling me things, and that I keep listening.

We have colours to paint, flights to take, poems to write, food to share, kids to feed (and to remind: share the cookies), stories to tell so folks understand, and stories to listen to so that we get inspired by how much we have in common, cats to pet & dogs to walk, whales to save (from humans),  and so much more.

I say this to you, but I think we’re not the only ones.

So tell me.
