“The soul has been given its own ears to hear things that the mind does not understand.” Rumi
Your body, your mind and soul works together and are synonymous with who you are.
We naturally take care of our body with nutrition and exercising and this incorporates taking care of our mind. When we do some soul searching, by examining our conscious, are we feeding and exercising the soul?
Food for the body is not enough. There must be food for the soul.” Dorothy Day
Our soul, the very essence of who we are! The soul allows you to feel and just be, by allowing you to care, to love, feeding the conscience, building your mind. Through all of this it individualises you. I often do introspection, examining my thoughts and feelings, especially when I feel stuck and uninspired.
“In a world where everyone wears a mask, it’s a privilege to see a soul.” Anonymous
I prompt myself to get started and I get inspired to be:
Be kind, this can but only reciprocate
Be caring and loving, the world needs this
Be empathetic, be drawn to understanding one another
Be you, by encompassing all good
“Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.” Desmond Tutu

“For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others;
For beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness,
And for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”
( Audrey Hepburn )
Until we meet again..
May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
The rains fall soft upon your fields
May green be the grass you walk on
May blue be the skies above you
May pure be the joys that surround you
May true be the hearts that love you.
(Irish Saying)
