I Met My Soul
I am stunned, but I want to be stunned, since I have sworn to you, my soul, to trust you even if you lead me through madness… Let me lay my head on a stone before your door, so that I am prepared to receive your light. – Carl Jung, The Red Book
I found my soul when the earth Shook beneath my trembling feet My thoughts adrift in madness I met her there in my raging storm Waiting patiently for my awakening A flash of thunder reverberated Through my disintegrating mind Reassembling the words of doom This fragile human experience Always teetering over the abyss My soul whispered in silence Illuminating my tortured spirit Prepare to receive the light I have absolute faith in my fate…
The period of peace and tranquility, and relief that follows a turbulent or chaotic time. I can also relate to this experience.
Beautifully told, written.
Good morning Rea, 🙏
I love how this moves from chaos to faith, from trembling to light. That line, “My soul whispered in silence,” feels like the turning point we all long for. It’s a powerful reminder that even in the storm, something inside us is waiting to guide us home.
