Mind Heart Body Soul

 Mind, heart, body, soul. The mind interprets how we understand the world around us. Calculating and predicting events, drawing on past memories and learnings. The heart is what gives us our drive. It is the love of family, friends and colleagues. The body is what we traverse the terrestrial world in. Providing data and feedback from the environment around us. It must always be stimulated. And finally, the soul. "You are a little soul carrying around a corpse." - Epictetus. Our soul is our connectedness to the universe. That sense of being a part of something bigger than ourselves. The sense of connecting with a long lost friend and having not skipped a bit. The sense of meeting someone for the first time and feeling that you've already known them a lifetime. The sense of being somewhere you haven't been before, but knowing you've been there all along. The soul is the invisible light  that reaches out from inside us, and interlocks with those precious few along the way. Our soul knows the way. Our soul knows right from wrong, and it years to do good in the universe. Choose to be great today, not tomorrow. choose to live a life of virtue. Choose to be kind and forgiving to those still finding their path.
