The Voice of the Heart, A Greeting from the Heart
So,
this is the feeling I have here,
this is the feeling I just had,
I keep putting that feeling into words for the world.
Though I might forget what I said and the listener might forget too,
in that moment, those words exist.

• From “I Decided to Record” by Kim Shin-ji *

As I leave the store, “Have a great weekend.”
To a friend wearing a great outfit, “You look fantastic today!”
To my mom heading to work, “Have a safe day!”
These words, these feelings, arise within me
and don’t dissipate, they exist in that moment.
By expressing these words from the heart,
I make both myself and the other person
happy.

words, feelings, happiness
