What carries us forward?

But soul?
Do you agree with soul?
Not really.
More like you resonate with soul.
You listen to soul.
You look for the soul of something.
You’re aware of what something is doing to your soul.*

Rob Bell

We look around to see what we have for the journey and find at bottom that we possess only intuitions and imagination, We look for courage and yet find little of it.**
David Whyte

How large is my soul?
Not the kind of question
to come up in the everyday,
Though I suspect one that has
everything to do with
the ordinary – soul caring
for mind and heart
and body as they move
through this world
from what is to
what can be,
Nurtured
by these in turn, indirectly–
Maybe soulful
is bravery?
