The Heart: A Lonely Hunter

The heart is hungry and longs to be fed. When it has been forced through a negative, hostile, or abusive upbringing, to live in a state of perpetual starvation, it will eat tree bark, crickets or dirt. Many, far too many of us, are living in relationships feed us thusly. The very best we get in these relationships is crumbs under the table—which we treat as a King's feast. We will hang on to the memory of those crumbs as if they were breath itself. We stay in those relationships because of those crumbs and because we have no idea that it is actually possible to have something better. And if we happen to be single and starving, we will often jump into any relationship at all just to tell ourselves that we are no longer hungry. All the while we are still starving. Today we are going to talk about how to get out of this terrible cycle. How to get into an authentic relationship with self and a significant other. Don't miss it.
