What does it mean when your soul cries?
Would you know if this were happening to you?
Are you aware of the function of your soul?
Could you identify your soul?
Dictionary.com identifies your soul as:
The principle of life, feeling, thought and action in humans, regarded as a distinct entity separate from the body, and commonly held to be separable in existence from the body; the spiritual part of humans as distinct from the physical part.
The spiritual part of humans regarded in its moral aspect, or as believed to survive death and be subject to happiness or misery in a life to come.
The disembodied spirit of a deceased person.
The emotional part of human nature; the seat of the feelings or sentiments.
A human being; person.
Christian Science. God; the divine source of all identity and individuality.
Any thought, desire or deed creates etheric energy that marks your soul.
The purpose of your soul is to grow and transform.
Each soul comes with the freedom of choice and purpose.
The expression of this purpose is vital for your soul to evolve.
Your soul must have experiences in order to evolve.
A very young child can hear its soul’s calling.
As the child grows up, external influences, such as parents and the media, fill the child’s head, therefore, pushing away the
soul’s agenda.
Wanting to be loved and accepted, the child then begins a journey that is not in accordance with the soul’s agenda.
Here is where conflict arises and life gets difficult.
The individual is doing so much thinking that it can’t feel what the soul desires.
The urge to be accepted and fit in with the masses becomes more important than honoring your true desire.
You think your accomplishments will bring approval and recognition.
You think this approval and recognition will bring you happiness.
Every minute of every day you are doing what you think you should do to arrive, one day, at the end of the road where happiness is.
Some know what they feel they should be doing; however, they put it off until later in life when they have finished doing what they think they are suppose to do.
Sometimes a soul’s calling is so loud that an individual can hear it and feel it, several times a day, for years, but continues to ignore it.
This is when the soul begins to cry.
This is when self-sabotaging behavior comes into play.
This is when things begin to happen in a person’s life that causes pain, misery and grief.
Imagine if you had a bird and everyone around you began to tell you to feed your bird cooked navy beans. Your bird doesn’t like cooked navy beans, but in an effort not to starve, however, he eats the beans. The bird becomes very unhappy, gets sick, and eventually dies.
Similarly, you are not feeding, nurturing, nourishing, or being kind to your soul when you live your life the way you think or are told it should be lived instead of the way you truly feel it should be lived.
Why would someone not live the life they were meant to live?
Peer pressure from parents could be a reason.
Your parents want you to have a better life than they had, so they put you on a road that they think is best for you.
Acceptance by others is another reason.
The desire to fit in and be accepted is fueled by ego and insecurities.
Of course, as a teenager it is difficult to recognize the reasons behind the behavior.
The choices that one makes can be to please another, such as parents and friends, all in an effort to garner acceptance, approval and love, or fill the desire to fit in.
When the ego and insecurities are at play, one cannot hear the soul’s true desires.
An individual may marry or be in a relationship that they think is best for them merely because it wins the approval of friends and/or family.
