Sometimes The Soul Speaks Quietly

You must create space for your soul to speak to you. And when you find this space you must defend it with everything you have.

I know how difficult that can be in the modern world to carve out time, but the truth is, it's not optional. At least not for a being who is here to play their role in the great change that is taking place on Earth in our lifetimes.

The soul is often a quiet thing, it doesn't always compete well with noise, urgency, and constant movement. It asks for space, for quiet, for a different kind of attention than most of us are trained to give. If you want a real relationship with it, you have to make room. You have to choose it, again and again, even when life pulls you elsewhere.

The soul can be slow and shy. It does not always arrive in clear sentences or immediate insights. Sometimes what it carries cannot be spoken in minutes or even hours. Sometimes its voice unfolds over hours, days, months and even years. The soul, you see, dances to the rhythm of seasons and great cosmic cycles.

To build relationship with the soul requires patience and a willingness to remain.

Like a new born, it needs to be held and loved with care and presenced and curiousity.

You listen even though you may never fully understanding, you remain present even when it speaks a language you can't quite comprehend.

So find a way, even where there seems to be no way. Hold firm in your commitment to what cannot be measured or rushed. Protect the ground where this relationship can take root, grow and flourish. Because this spacious intimacy is the soil that great love grows from, this is the portal that allows life to come alive through you.
