Ubuntu

Sometimes my heart hurts. 

Not because I don't love but because I love so deeply.

But that's okay. I'd rather feel deeply than to float aimlessly on the surface and never touch the depth of life.

I need for my fingers and toes to dig down deep below the surface.

I need to be immersed in life.

To be alive is to feel. And to feel is to be alive.

So, yes, sometimes my heart hurts because I love so deeply. For me there is no other way.
