Ode to the Soul

Follow the heart, not the head. The head uses the logic of the mind. In today’s world, this logic is prized above all else, yet it has its limitations. It is boosted by ego to reign supreme over our personality and limit us to a human perspective of life. Human logic does not see the bigger picture, or see the interconnectedness of all beings and the significant interplay of energy in seemingly random events. When we connect to the heart, which is the seat of the soul, we are connecting to a powerful source of infinite wisdom. Here, the bigger picture becomes apparent and life begins to make more sense as the soul whispers words from our divine path, guiding us on our way with purpose.
Image inspired by the Sforza Hours produced in Milan, Italy 1490. Northern Renaissance style illumination.
