To open one's heart

de Michel Evdokimov

There are many ways to open one's heart. The heart is opened in those who love, and yet the heart is injured in those who sorrow. It is a deep well, and he who plumbs its depths can find spiritual wonders. The heart is the locus of the person--emotional, physical, and moral. But over and above all these dimensions, the heart is also the place of spiritual encounter with God.
