Every form of attachment to self tends to keep the heart closed no matter how great the desire. Even attachment to heart cannot open heart. No desire, no ambition, no hope can do it. It comes from surrender of self and then heart opens almost automatically. Either we are at the helm, or the Spirit of Guidance leads us on.
