wholeheartedly
❤️ 全(whole)+心(heart)+全(whole)+意(mind) = whole heart, whole mind
A doubled 全 (quán, whole/complete) brackets 心 (xīn, heart) and 意 (yì, mind/intent): both your heart and your intention are fully committed. The repeated 全 stresses nothing is held back — wholehearted, all-in.
全 — enter 入 on top + jade 玉
Originally written as 入 (enter) over 玉 (jade), depicting a complete, unflawed piece of jade kept in storage. From this image of a perfect jade came the meanings 'whole,' 'complete,' and 'entire.' The top component is sometimes written as 人.
心 — pictograph of a heart with chambers and aorta
心 is a pictograph showing a stylized heart, with strokes representing the organ's chambers and the aorta at the top. Originally meaning the physical heart, it broadened to cover mind, feelings, and intentions, since ancient Chinese thought located thinking and emotion in the heart.
