The craft of questions, the craft of stories, the craft of the hands – all these are the making of something, and that something is soul. Any time we feed soul, it guarantees increase.*
Clarissa Pinkola Estés
Of the many callings in the world, the invitation to an adventure of an awakened and full life is the most exhilarating. This is the dream of every heart. Yet most of us are lost or caught in the forms of life that exile us from the life we dream of. Most people long to step into the path of creative change that would awaken their lives to beauty an passion, deepen their contentment and allow their lives to make a difference.**
John O’Donohue
Soul-fullness looks different in each person,
But it is always about
becoming fully awake.
When we are not fully awake, we need
everything around us to be louder, busier, brighter, as well as
problem-solved, unsurprising, uncomplicated.
Of course the world and universe are what they are, chaotic and
unpredictable;
Spending time and focus on your inside worlds is not only
an ancient human pursuit, but is
arguably more important than ever for dealing with life’s
decrease, but it is also the way to our
peculiar or boutique
increase.
Some people wake us up.^
