  6. Kourtney Heintz | April 17, 2012 at 5:49 pm

    Catherine, I was just thinking about how much I have held back in the past. As if afraid I would use up what I had or that life would disappoint. But you are absolutely right. We should all lead the life we want and love the life we lead. :)

    • Cat Forsley | April 17, 2012 at 8:01 pm

      HI MISS K XO
      THAT’S REALLY BEAUTIFUL – WHAT YOU JUST WROTE —–
      WHY HOLD BACK RIGHT ? …….. I WOULD RATHER LOVE LIFE AND LOVE PEOPLE AND JUST LOVE ……
      THAN THE ALTERNATIVE – WHICH SEEMS TO ME BECAUSE I FELT THIS WAY BEFORE -
      PASSIONLESS ……
      I WAS THAT WAY BEFORE …….
      NOW – NO WAY NO HOW – LIFE IS WAY TOO SHORT ……
      XOXOXO

      • Kourtney Heintz | April 17, 2012 at 8:05 pm

        I think part of it was fear too. But you are completely right. The safest heart is the dullest heart. Better to live and love and embrace life than to sit on the sidelines and watch it pass you by. :)

        • Cat Forsley | April 17, 2012 at 8:08 pm

          TOTALLY …………..
          YOU KNOW HOW THEY SAY WE ONLY USE 10% OF OUR BRAINS – OR THEY USED TO SAY THAT ……….IMAGINE WHAT THE EQUATION IS FOR THE HUMAN HEART ———– ?
          I KNOW THAT’S A WEIRD THOUGHT ……..
          BUT I WONDER HOW MUCH COMPASSION , KINDNESS – LOVE AND PEACE THE HEART REALLY COULD EMOTE ……….
          IF IT WAS ON THE BRAIN RATIO THING ——-

          YES I HAVE BEEN READING TOO MUCH SCIENCE TODAY :) XO

          • Kourtney Heintz | April 17, 2012 at 8:48 pm

            It is pretty cool to think about. I probably use 25% of my heart at most. :) What a difference it would make if people used their entire hearts. :)

            • Cat Forsley | April 18, 2012 at 8:42 am

              GOOD MORNING MISS K XX
              IT’S A COOL CONCEPT HUH …..
              I THINK I USE ABOUT THE SAME RATIO FOR MY HEART ——
              IMAGINE 100% !!!!!!
              WHAT A THOUGHT -=====!!!

                    I’m not sure how they could scientifically monitor it. But I feel it radiating out of me when I’m being kind and friendly and creating a positive space. :) Don’t know how to document that. LOL.

                    Ugh, the countdown is tough. Waiting. Luckily, I’ve got work to do but nothing as intense as my Jan-April schedule. :)

                    • Cat Forsley | April 19, 2012 at 8:23 am

                      Hey Miss Catherine,

                      Probably get a prize too for figuring it out! :)

                      5 days. It’s coming up. :) Last night I made peace with being a quarterfinalist. Whatever happens with the next cut. This was a great experience and I’m so happy to be a QF.

                      And if I get to the Semifinals–that’s just icing on the cupcake of happiness. :)

                    • Cat Forsley | April 19, 2012 at 10:59 am

    This would sound great set to music… the message is so clear. ;-)

    Sometimes we try so hard to pull away from someone we think we don’t love and as we are doing that we realize how much we love them.
    Andrea XOXOXO

  10. granbee | April 20, 2012 at 12:03 pm

    Yes, dear Cat, let us look very closely indeed at the paths where our hearts lead us–let us find more interconnecting paths for mutual support and benefit to ourselves and others.

  11. jimibodansko | April 21, 2012 at 8:47 pm

    when the heart moves, everything is in constant motion …
    cheers to you again Cat:)
