Your Soul is calling

If you are tired of scrolling, trying to find yourself in the posts of others - this one is for you.

Someone said ‘Do not be afraid to start over – again and again” and I really felt that. I haven’t written meaningfully in years now. Somewhere along the line my pen ran dry and it’s been super hard to find the words to go with what life has been dishing out. But the urge to purge through words remained. I tried journaling, tried starting a different blog under a different name on a different platform, tried creating an online presence on social media but let’s just say visual and short form “content” is not really my thing.

Eventually I got tired of scrolling through the words of others, trying to find my voice. I got frustrated looking through images of others living their lives, trying to find hints of the kind life I wanted for myself.

With time you realise that the restlessness you feel is your soul calling you to listen. The itching for something new and different doesn’t go away because your soul has something to tell you, it wants to show you the way.

And search as you might outside of your self, nothing clicks because the answers are inside you. They have always been. Only when you look within does your evolution begin. With insight do you start to pierce together some semblance of a new beginning.

The new you, they aren’t in the viral videos, the trending sounds, the curated quotes. In the end you have to look within to find the big magic. And that often looks like checking out, taking a step back, being still and quite, going for walks without your phone, sitting with yourself in silence and just listening to what your heart tells you.

Slowly but surely, I am starting to hear myself think again. I am starting to hear whispers of words, of ideas which could become something on paper – like every writer does. It’s that creative voice awakening. The alchemy coming alive again from within. The fire rekindling again. Giving it the time it needs to unfold, like one does. And really looking foward to what this becomes.
