Heart of others

Have you ever noticed that there are people who seem to just capture your heart, even when you don’t know them personally? Why is this? Why do you feel a connection with them when you have never met them?

I have heard some people say that you feel this connection because you see a part of yourself within them and that draws you to them. But maybe it’s because you see a part of who you want to be in them and that draws you to them as well?

Either way you view it there are unexplainable reasons why we feel drawn to certain situations and to certain people, or can they be explained?

What I feel is that despite the above reasons, even though they are valid and I believe they are true, I feel this connection is meant to teach us something valuable about ourselves and about the world around us. It may be a way to strengthen us and keep us focused on what we want to become or strengthen these qualities we already possess.

Each connection we make is valuable in many ways, when we are open to these experiences and not bitter when they don’t turn out the way we want, we can learn so much more than when we are close-minded about the whole experience.
