Painless society

"Follow your heart " Steve Jobs said in his commencement speech. I want to follow my heart. So you would like to... Everyone would like to. But where is your heart? Where is my heart? What is your heart to begin with? The truth is we all lost our hearts. Or we're all at a loss what it is. How can we follow what we do not know what it is? We all just chant "Follow our heart."
Most people believe their heart is their desire. If you want to eat, follow your heat, eat it. If you don't want to work, follow your heart, you don't have to. If you want to have a sex, follow your heat, go ahead. If you want to let off steam by killing anyone you meet on the street. If you want to ......
That's not heart. Before we follow our heart we must find what it is. But is it something to find out in the first place? Is it here already? Or is it something that is born and grow? Sure desire is a quality that flows out of heart and encourage you to follow. But it is not heart itself. Heart is here already but it grows. It grows and changes. Once born as a human we have to nurture our heart. How? With the help of pain. Only pain can nurture our hearts. Pain of lost love. Pain of losing loved ones. Pain of physical training at sports. Pain of studying. Getting through all the pains and waiting for the heart to grow, then follow your heart.
Painless society. No heart to follow...
