What is the Quickest Way to your Heart?

Now let’s say that it is the first time I introduce myself to someone and eventually get to know someone. Especially as you get older with age, it gets more and more awkward (or so I think). So, I think the quickest way to get to my heart would be for the other person to be honest and open about themselves. 

I know of this one friend where we have been so close, and it’s been less than a year since we have been friends, yet we are so comfortable talking about anything and everything. We could talk about Indian Soap Operas with as intensity as we talk about our love lives. Our friendship and herself as a person were quickest to my heart. And I also believe that being comfortable with each other comes from both ways. I remember that both of us felt awkward initially, but we went out of the way to approach each other—both of us mutually initiated plans. We could communicate with each other without hesitation. So that entire journey builds because this friendship has to come from both ways.

Another instance is with my mom. She has always been in my heart, and I have always admired her every day. There was this one day, though, where she completely opened up to me. That was so important for our relationship. And with honesty comes trust, the more people are honest about themselves, the more you can trust them for the person they are.

So yeh, I have gotten to know many new people, especially in the past year. It was all because they would be open to me; moreover, some people have been very spontaneous. Like I would not be expecting, and the other person does something special. I notice and remember all the sweet gestures, and my heart melts when I think about it.

Being honest with yourself, making an effort to build a friendship or a relationship is the quickest way to my heart. And if you want a faster way to my heart, then surprise me!

Especially at a time like this, the quickest way to my heart is to leave the sweetest text. Who doesn’t love knowing that you are missed and being thought of by another person? A simple how are you, how are things going has melted my heart these past couple months.

Writing this makes me feel so blessed for everybody who is already in my heart—lots of love and cuddles to all.
