Somewhere along the way, there develops within the soul a yearning that can no longer be ignored, a craving for the great love affair. We feel it drawing ever closer. It is the greatest of them all. It cannot fail. It is all consuming. It is incomparable. It is the love affair with our own true nature and the source from which it comes. The desire is in all of us but, more often than not, it is ignored for other interests. We wrestle with each interest, trying to make it work, growing with each adventure until the light has grown bright enough for us to reach for it. Donna Goddard
About This Quote

A soul yearning, a craving for the great love affair, is what we all have. We all know that it is the greatest, most loving experience in life. It cannot fail because it is all consuming. It is incomparable because it has this power that nothing else can match. It is the same desire that drives us to look for true love because it draws us in, too strong to ignore even when we are caught up in other things.
