“What in your life is calling you? When all the noise is silenced, the meetings adjourned, the lists laid aside, and the wild iris blooms by itself in the dark forest, what still pulls on your soul? In the silence between your heartbeats hides a summons, do you hear it? Name it, if you must, or leave it forever nameless, but why pretend it is not there?” — Unknown source
Life. Life is a series of events that teach us more than we could ever imagine. Life is not simple; it is complex. We go through the motions every day and we live, we survive, we persevere. There is something that keeps me grounded, that makes me feel peace and understand my purpose. What pulls at my soul are those with meaning and depth. I talk frequently about nature and the sky both of which pull at my soul and speak to me. The sky has meaning for me that life exists beyond our grasp, beyond our comprehension. The sky is a place that I know will always be there, never straying although always changing. The sky and nature remind me of life in which there is light, dark, greatness, peace; there is hope, beauty, fulfillment, knowledge and things unknown. How can something like that not speak to your soul?
