Why?

One day, The Heart wondered...

The Heart: Why am I alone? Everybody has a partner. You have a pair of eyes. Pair of ears. Pair of nostrils. Pair of lungs. Pair of kidneys. Even a pair of brain hemispheres! Why do I stay here on the left of your chest and there's a void at the right? Should you not have another heart?
You: It's true. Why?

The Voice: It's to remind you... that you alone are complete, for you can function well. But you need another to be whole. When you are with another, you fulfill your completeness.
The Heart: I can't understand.

The Voice: Take for example the hands. A single hand is complete on its own. It can function on its own. It can do things alone as well.
But with the other hand, every task becomes easier. You maintain balance. And you can even do more than what you could with just one hand. You can multitask. You can be... more you.
The Heart: Oh, so that's it.
You: But I also just have one mouth. One tongue.

The Voice: That's for you to tell just ONE... the one for you... to share this void beside each other's heart, and fill it with another's.

Imagine you are a cup. Alone, you can be full. But when another one comes, you can fill the other too... with the liquid you contain... and you will have new 'space' to fill, while together with the other cup, while apart.

But together, you can be filled with the same liquid coming from one pitcher. Isn't it cool?

I dedicate this to those who feel that the need to care for another is not a good thing and to those who keep on hiding and running away. Seize the moment... or it will pass you by. ;) I also dedicate this to those who already found their 'other'. Continue filling each other's cups. Hahaha!

We are all connected to the same source. How come, sometimes, it's difficult to reach another? =P
