"The Soul cannot be listless when some great desire fixes and inflames it... Strong desires make strong prayers." E.M. Bounds - Reading this makes me wonder why are we all so fake, especially to ourselves? Why are we embarrassed by our own desires and choose to bury them deep inside? We all pretend that we're doing just fine. Life is perfect (we tell ourselves and everyone we meet). We have no real desires, problems or concerns. Why does pretending seem so much safer and appropriate? Why do we continually do this? The price we pay is a loss of hope, direction and most significantly the loss of our soul. Face your fears, challenges and obstacles head on. Bravely bust through them. Allow your desires to manifest. Be honest and good to others, but most importantly to yourself.
