You are probably familiar with the statement, "To thine own heart be true" One of the ways we make our lives so complex is when we veer off course and ignore what is really important to us. If we put aside our own hearts and follow what the world thinks we should and ought to do, we will find ourselves unfulfilled and empty. Life will be tasteless. We will go through the motions, but nothing will satisfy us. What do you want out of life? Some people spend so much time meeting what they think their obligations are that they don't even know what they want..
When I ask what you want out of life, I am not talking about selfish desire; I am talking about heart desire. There is something deep in your heart GOD has planted there. Everyone is called and equipped to do something, and that includes you! It takes boldness to follow your heart instead of the crowd..
It is certainly not simple to have dreams and visions in your heart that you ignore and constantly try to push down while you simultaneously try to make yourself enjoy doing something you actually hate. You might think it will complicate your life if you end up making some people angry in order to follow your heart, but the truth is following your heart is absolutely necessary if you ever really intend to enjoy a simple life..
