Each soul lives on the verge of remembering the forgotten agreement and original dream that it carries; yet each moment can be another point when the dream of life becomes lost again. Each meaningful step we take on the path of life involves some tension between the needs of the common world and the dreams of the soul. This inherent tension can stop us in our tracks, yet can also be the source of vital energy needed for the soul to grow. Each time we remember a piece of why we came to life we pull the seeds of eternity farther into the world of time. The inner seed keeps trying to sprout, but often our fate must place us in a crossroads or nail us to a cross before we pay proper attention to it. Michael Meade
About This Quote

The idea of the soul is not something that has ever really been understood. Since the dawn of time, people have wondered about the soul and what exactly it is. Is it like an entity that travels through a person’s body or a part of a person’s mind? Or, is it a force that can be transferred from one person to another? No one really knows for sure. The only thing we know for sure is that each time we experience a moment in life, we are fulfilling a part of our destiny as well as the destiny of others.
