1
The heart is: blank card as we all need something to fill it.
The mind is: pulling knots from your hair as that really reflects many thoughts.
The mouth is: a bucket of nails as words can both build and stab you terribly.
The eyes are: a sense of déjà vu as we've all seen it before.
The limbs are: noodles, because everyone has noodles arms.
2
The heart is: the crunch of fresh leaves in autumn.
The mind is: a clear, still pool of water.
The mouth is: being aware of your own breathing
The eyes are: pretending to be a dragon because you can see your breath
The limbs are: rain in your shoes
Because: The body and mind are made by how they interacts with the world, so it reflects the world as well.
3
The heart is: the blank is used here, filled in as: "The realization the heart can't be defined", because picking any word for the heart is too restricting
The mind is: "the sudden alertness where the rest of the world vanishes", because it's about the change of focus only the mind can do.
The mouth is: "the salty taste of ocean air" because the taste is so strong and memorable.
The eyes are: "meeting somebody's eyes" because then two pairs of eyes are meeting, and some sort of interaction will occur.
The limbs are: "waking up from a nightmare paralyzed", because you are never as aware of your limbs as when you can't use them.
4
The heart is: looking at someone else and knowing you'll protect them no matter what
Because: Looking out for each other's what makes us people. Having compassion is important. That's what gives a person conviction.
The mind is: mistaking dreams for memories
Because: Sometimes it's easy for people to get caught up thinking of our dreams for the future, but the right way to go about it is to recognize those mistakes and remember how our past can change our future.
The mouth is: the sensation of breath on your cheek
Because: What you say isn't always as important as how the other person feels it. You can't just think about what you're saying, you've got to think about who you're talking to too.
The eyes are: a color that's exactly between two colors you know the names for
Because: Making a person right means making each person different. So you can never use the same words to describe someone's eyes.
The limbs are: stretching out as far as you can (blank)
Because: It's best when limbs something that helps you grab what you're reaching for, that helps you get where you're going. They're tools you use to the fullest.
5
The heart is: "the strength of a team," because that's what makes the heart grow
The mind is: "the sensation of forgetting something you knew," because that's when you realize how important your mind really is
The mouth is: "singing in a foreign language," because that's how you train your mouth for new experiences
The eyes are: "raindrops traveling down glass," because you can see an entire world in a raindrop
The limbs are: "the mastery of their own fate," because the mind can entrap itself and the heart can be heavy, but hands and feet take action
6
The heart is: a bird in a cage with an open door
The mind is: a writing desk with a blank piece of paper
The mouth is: a childhood friend whose name you can't remember
The eyes are: A book you remember without having read
The limbs are: the urge to tap your toes
Because: Hearts are about the bonds we decide to accept. The bird stays in its cage because it wants to. We all start out without memories and ready to learn, so minds are like a writing desk with a blank sheet of paper. The mouth is a childhood friend whose name you can't remember because the name's on the tip of your tongue. The limbs are the urge to tap your toes because you can move to your own beat. And the eyes are a book you remember without having read because there's more to things than meets the eye, and because seeing things is part of memory.
7
The heart is: Yet hope again elastic springs, Unconquered, though she fell;
The mind is: a half-finished drawing
The mouth is: humorously shaped root vegetables
The eyes are: a moment of utter despair
The limbs are: a chill down your spine
Because: At the heart, there is hope and courage in spite of the despair seen and fear felt. The mind is of progress and a journey, something half-finished. And it doesn't hurt to have a sense of humor that you can share with others.
8
The heart is: deciding what to do with the belongings of a deceased loved one
The mind is: creating a path of your own
The mouth is: the taste of food made by a loved one
The eyes are: seeing a movement out of the corner of your eye and realizing nobody is there
The limbs are: pushing a branch away from your face
The heart won't forget a loved one long after you've gotten rid of their belongings.
The mind creates its own path with each decision it makes, determining its own future.
The mouth is what is able to eat and have tasty things, sustaining life. Cooking from a loved one makes it better.
The eyes will always see what no one else can, and it will always show you something new.
Branches are like limbs connected to one piece of the whole.
9
The heart is: "A hug from behind that you weren't expecting, because love can sneak up on you
The mind is: "Waking up just as you're about to fall to your death in a dream," because in the end the mind wants to keep living
The mouth is: "The weight of your tongue in your mouth," because it reminds you that words have consequences
The eyes are: "The sweet satisfaction of discovering something that only you know about," because you use your eyes to see new things
The limbs are: "A closed fist that turns into an open hand," because you can choose to hit someone or help them
10
The heart is: the moment after a cut with a sharp knife, before you begin to bleed is self explanatory.
The mind is: the echo of footsteps in an empty hallway because that's how most think.
The mouth is: the squish of your feet as you walk away from a muddy puddle because that's what I hear when most speak.
The eyes are: remembering only 10% of a dream, as that's all we experience through sight.
The limbs are: missing a skill.
11
The heart is: the drive to take down that which cannot be defeated
The mind is: the satisfaction of a well-earned victory
The mouth is: fog on a glass
The eyes are: seeing your own emotional reaction on someone else's face
The limbs are: the sound of a piece of paper tearing slowly
Because: we're not the sort to be messed with
12
The heart is: The pleasant feeling in your stomach after you've had a good meal
The mind is: The spirit of adventure
The mouth is: The rasp of a cat's tongue
The eyes are: Wet leaves stuck to glass
The limbs are: An albatross
The pleasant feeling in your stomach after you've had a good meal is for heart, because it's a content and restful feeling, more so if it's something that's shared. The spirit of adventure is for the mind, because it's something you feel but also something that you think about and put into action. The rasp of a cat's tongue is for the mouth, because of the sense of touch that comes from the tongue. Wet leaves stuck to glass are for the eyes, because it's a sight you see after the rain has cleared. And an albatross is for limbs, because we wish to fly freely.
13
The heart is: the opening notes of your favourite song.
The mind is: the colors of your dreams that don't exactly exist.
The mouth is: singing for a loved one.
The eyes are: seeing someone you don't want to see.
The limbs are: pulling off your gloves in the cold.
Because: Music is said to be from the heart, and it's something that can touch your heart very personally, right? And the colors of your dreams are something your mind came up with all on its own, out of your imagination. Obviously, you sing with your mouth, and your eyes are what capture the image of someone you don't want to see-- and maybe someday, let you see them differently, as well. Finally, your limbs are something that can let you grab onto different experiences, whether you want to shield them from something or expose them to something for the feeling of it. All of these are experiences that can come together to make a person, but they aren't the only ones-- and that person's feelings about them are a crucial part, as well.
14
The heart is: a song that always gets stuck in your head
The mind is: if you open the door to your dreams you can find your world of possibilities
The mouth is: freely speaking what's in your heart (new blank card!)
The eyes are: sunlight breaking through clouds
The limbs are: a caged animal not knowing how to walk in grass
[To accompany it, there is a song! With a lot of energy and love brought into it, please enjoy:
If you want to believe in a future you create,
just take a step into the fiercest winds and
don't give up!
This road might seem long and hard,
but we're so CHIN UP!
On the gloomiest of days,
a being* was born in a sheltered place
its future unwritten
its past a mystery
how can i live like this,
it asked itself?
Upwards, he searched for a path all of his own~
There it was: a path of hope
under the light of a sky that was darkened somehow
Even now could he find his place?
He could!
Don't give up, surely
if you make your way to your door of dreams...
A miracle will happen!
Inexperienced and awkward
He took his first steps
in this vast world would he find his place?
Along the way,
there were memories and thoughts
they lay scattered and forgotten
some were his and others were not
the more he walked he saw that this road
wasn't his alone!
He could live here
and find those people who shared his sorrows
so believe in yourself!
you'll definitely find a way!
He fell along the way,
lost among the dreams and thoughts
were they of his past?
the future?
It was a struggle to face all of it
...but on those awkward legs he stood!
the road wasn't over, the future unclear
there was still so much in this vast world
let's keeping going!
His journey brought him many things:
sorrow, happiness, even love
Would he find what he was searching for?
Only time would tell!
But surely, surely one day he would!
The swift sound of the ocean
The thump of a hitting the watermelon
with a bat in a game played with friends!
Blinking into the sunlight,
the light still playing against his lids...
It was just one day in many he remembered
One day in a life that seemed far away
Would he make a new one?
Would he return?
Why not BOTH!
It's not the end,
it's a beginning!
When you open that door
the song begins,
a song that never ends,
so find your world!
The world of possibilities is just before your eyes!
You'll always be more
WAY MORE!
then pins and cards
and impressions and clothes
you're yourself and not anyone else
isn't that more amazing
than anything else?
So, keep going, okay?
With everything you are--
with every part--
and with everyone!
Follow your own path to the door of dreams!
Don't give up!
