      21 Days to Transform, Transcend, and Treasure Your Life - Rebecca Herrera

      Chapter 1

      What Comes From The Heart Goes To The Heart

      I was watching the Kennedy Center for the Arts awards for achievement in entertainment somewhere around the approach of the New Year. Barbara Streisand was being recognized for her great achievements and enormous talent. Something struck me deeply as they were reviewing her accomplishments, something that she said. She said what comes from the heart goes to the heart.

      Thinking about her music and the passion that it holds, this phrase had rich meaning for me. She touches people profoundly as she sings, because it comes from a depth of passion and purity that she truly feels, singing from her heart.

      So many times we make decisions about how to live our lives, that aren’t our hearts desires, they are based on what someone else thinks we should do or be. We live lives that have been chosen by some religious belief, family belief, or cultural belief, never feeling satisfied. We spend so much time living those lives that we lose ourselves, and our true passions, content to just get through it. What if we chose to live from the heart?

      How could it be that I understood this principle, and what it meant to live from the heart, yet I was experiencing a lack of fulfillment in my own life? Externally everything looked fine, what more could I want. Yet my days were filled with doing things because I thought it was what I should do. I was living in a way that was right, or correct according to standards of what should be, or how someone else said I should live my life. I was trying to do the things in my life that could make me the perfect wife, the perfect daughter, and unexpectedly the perfect mother. Striving for perfection, and never achieving it. Trying to make people love me because I did all the right things, and remaining empty in the process.

      My mind was carried away to my own mother, who I remembered as being unhappy and discontent when I was growing up. In later years she had related to me that she had lived her life to please others. She told me that she felt like she had to do things to please other people, and had not been able to have the life she wanted, and in the process felt this discontent.

      I told her that is how I remembered her, as being unhappy, appearing unsatisfied. She was shocked, as she thought she had hidden it well. She couldn’t hide her true feelings and ultimate displeasure with much of her life, not feeling able to live from her heart.

      Here I was at the end of the year, reflecting on the successes and yet surprising pain and revelation that had left me shattered, completely broken. The year had been filled with blessing, the most financially prosperous year in my business, numerous new clients, and because of this success I had been able to bless my parents in ways that I had never imagined. My son was healthy, whole, and developing into a delightful companion. I was married to a handsome man, with a charming personality, kind, loving, sincere, out-going and engaged in life. We never fought, and lived together comfortably. What more could I want?

      Something was desperately wrong, something missing. I longed for true happiness and could not find it. The year had been strained for my husband and me, something unspoken, but very real. I found myself feeling angry for no reason, seeing my mother’s reflection when I looked in the mirror.

      I sensed the quiet discontent even more in him. Finally the truth, after many difficult months, the bombshell; he didn’t love me and said he never had loved me. Fourteen years spent together, 13 of those years married, he never loved me.

      After surviving the initial blow, New Years day was the best day of life in many years, because it was a day of cleansing and renewal. My husband sobbed with grief over his thoughts and emotions, sharing the truths that had been hidden in his heart all these years. We finally knew each other’s true emotions, and the pain we had both been living through.

      As he told me what his true feelings were, they had been my feelings all along. We had both been living lives that were less than living fully, lives without a spark between us. We were just getting by, just getting through it, not fully engaged in living an emotionally abundant life.

      My husband made a difficult decision to tell me that as much as he cared for and admired me, he was not, nor had ever been madly in love with me. As we talked about all the years, I realized that I had felt the same as he did. I recognized his qualities that should have made him perfect, but longed for love that was different than he could give me, never being satisfied. I was willing to just get through it, it wasn’t that bad. We had both been living the same empty experience.

      On that New Years day we began a new life, confirming that we needed to dissolve our marriage. It was a day of release, a new future for all of
