The Heart

I feel like my heart has expanded lately as if it can't be contained by the form of my small body. I have torn down fences, those barriers I had been limiting myself with. I can breath in and hold everyone I love there.
I am full
supersaturated
overflowing

(and don't you dare call me a dairy product!) I am as serious as a heart attack.

There is no need for temples, no need for complicated philosophies. 
My brain and my heart are my temples; my philosophy is kindness.
-Dalai Lama
