There is this amazing place I go. Its a secret place in which no other entity is allowed except for the ones I allow to be there. God is always there because without Him that place would not exist.
Sometimes this place takes on many different forms. A home, somewhere with a friend, somewhere with a group of friends. Sometimes it is manifested in a family member or family members. Sometimes it is just alone.
Its silent and loud depending on the desire. It shouts or whispers or speaks in a calm voice. It mentions things and motions moments into shapes and attributes of which many sometimes see but few ever feel.
It is foremost, above and beyond, a secret place and its special to me because it seeks not attention but the attention I give it. It subtly complains when I neglect it and over time I have learned to nurture it more than how I did in the past.
Its called the heart. Its that one place I can always go to because it speaks to me the truth. I've enjoyed where it has taken me thus far and it has gotten me to where I need to go even though there have been times I've neglected it.
It has made me win and lose. Materialistic things and people. I've gained and I've lost. Money, status, relationships, loved ones, enemies, friends, fortune and fame. But not once...not once...have I lost my secret place.
Never once have I lost my heart.
