This is about our heart, our emotion, our love.
I dont have money, nice clothes or a house.
And the question caught me by surprise, so much so that I actually chuckled.
Tanja Heffner
It was never that.
Never about fancy clothes or cars; never about financial status or even selfish reasons.
Not what he had.
But to this day, his question makes me wonder.
Why do we see what wehaveas more important that who weare?
And when it comes down to it, what do we really have?
Tanja Heffner
These are only activities, only objects.
Neither define, nor reflect who we really are.
In the end, all we have is our heart, is our soul.
But what, of those things, truly matters when it comes to a deeper connection?
What, of those things, will outlast us, will strengthen our bond?
What, of those things, comes fromusas people, and not simply material gains of this world?
We simply cannot offer any more of ourselves than our hearts.
And honestly, that is humbling.
That is more than enough.
I, for one, cannot offer a life filled with perfection.
I cannot offer a body because this body will swell and shrink and grow and change.
I cannot offer a house or car, cannot offer wealth or fancy shoes or expensive jewelry.
Yes, I can give you presents and gifts.
Yes, I can shower you with affection and items that are the material representation of my love.
But will that truly be enough?
Or will these items fade, leaving only my love behind?
I hope thats enough.
Because its my everything.
