Follow Your Heart
"If you let people follow their feelings, they will be able to do good. This is what is meant by saying that human nature is good."
- Mencius
I will never understand parents who try to persuade their child to follow a career that is more to the parents' liking than the child's. When one makes a career out of a dream or passion that's been nestled in one's heart, it's easy to look forward to going to work. Feeling fulfilled by our work fosters a more positive worldview, which helps us naturally focus on the good all around us.
TODAY IF I FEEL THE URGE TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT- WHETHER IT'S TO EXPLORE A NEIGHBORHOOD PARK OR MUSEUM, TAKE A CLASS, SEE A PARTICULAR MOVIE, OR TRY A NEW KIND OF FOOD - I WILL GO FOR IT.
