Your Heart's Desire

How difficult is it to know what your heart's desire is? Shouldn't it be something that is alive in your heart. A desire so strong that you have a difficult time keeping it a secret. It gives you a reason to wake up every morning. It's what drives you to do the best you can.  But why is it for some of you it's so difficult to describe what it is that you want. If we were to ask you "What is your heart's desire?" would you be able to answer with conviction. But looking at the bigger picture, is it so important that you know what your desires are. At this point in your life, you may just be discovering who you are and what makes you the person you've become. You are still learning what life is about and it may not matter to you at this time. It's just enough to live a life that is simply true to yourself. No more, no less. There is no right or wrong in life. When you are ready to go after your heart's desire, it will be right there for you. You are exactly where you need to be. Know that your heart's desire will always be waiting for you. And who knows, you may just be living your heart's desire right this minute.
Sometimes your heart's desire is right in front of you...

(Someone asked me the other day what my heart's desire was. My response was "To be of service to the universe." She responded, "That's fine, but what do YOU want?"  I felt bad for a moment because I couldn't think of anything else. She went on to say, "What is it that you want for yourself?" My answer was still the same, "To be of service." I'll be going on a trip in a few days where I'll have time to myself. I'll use it to reflect upon this question a little more."
