Your soul doesn’t speak in words,
it speaks in feelings
temperatures
movement
colors.
Words are something that us humans have created not very long ago.
Words are not ancient.
They are not the truest form of communication.
Before words, we only had our instincts –
our gut, also known as our second brain.
So when we really want to listen to our souls
and hear what they have to say,
we shouldn’t be listening.
We shouldn’t be talking.
Maybe even praying out loud isn’t the quickest way to access them.
We should just be silent
and feel.
Feelings are the things that transcend borders, countries, and languages.
They’re what make us all exactly the same.
Although humans have been given the gift to be able to comprehend much more than any other life form,
and come up with words and reason and logic
and imagine so much more,
we shouldn’t use these things like they’re the most important form of knowing.
We can use them to our advantage,
but they’re not the foundation of what we are meant to be doing here on this earth.
Words are not the truth.
They are the truth filtered through so many layers of societal constructs, idealogies, myths, imagined realities…
The truth cannot be spoken.
It can only be felt.
