"The less you open your heart to others, the more your heart suffers"

This quote by Deepak Chopra speaks with the importance of being open and susceptible with others. It suggests that when we keep our hearts closed off to others, we are not allowing ourselves to experience the joys of significant relationships. We are also not enabling ourselves to get the love and assistance that comes from being open and truthful with those around us. When we keep our hearts blocked, we are basically rejecting ourselves the opportunity to experience the fullness of life. We are also rejecting ourselves the opportunity to recover and grow from the experiences we have with others. By keeping our hearts blocked, we are only causing our hearts to suffer. Therefore, it is very important to open our hearts to others in order to experience the pleasures of life and to recover from our past experiences.
