““I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories from your life—not someone else’s life—water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom. That is the work. The only work.””
Being true to our own story is not easy. The work is hard and not always welcome. Here are some resources I hope might be helpful for you as you travel on your path. You are never more alone, or less, than when you are doing the work of your Soul’s nourishment and growth. You are alone because that is the only way, but you are not alone, because there are others doing exactly the work you are doing right now, and have been since time out of mind.
In the spirit of this connection to other Soul travelers both past and present, I offer here a list of resources, from podcast to books to art supplies. Take what is helpful, leave anything that is not.

I’ve included there some songs I have found helpful when trying to find my own Soul Encouragement, especially during these difficult times.
