Difficult roads can lead you to beautiful destinations; and the beauty of humanity is in our shared mutuality and intrinsic reciprocity, you are never alone in your difficulty, we are all made of the same stardust! The essence of spirituality and the bigger picture is to uncover who you truly are and share in that hard-won individuality; to be a force of good aligning with your gifts, talents and special qualities that we all grow from. We can transmute and transition every seemingly negative thought, emotion, and circumstance for our greater good and those around us. ~ Christine Evangelou
Soul Gifts quotes by Christine Evangelou
Some things can be fixed in a day,
Some things can be fixed in a month, Some things can be fixed in a year
But, the heartache that you gave me
Is going to stay for the lifetime!

- Perhaps, my soul is bleeding from a long time. ~ Jyoti Patel
Soul Gifts quotes by Jyoti Patel
Only God can save every soul. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Soul Gifts quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
You don't have to go out the door to know what goes on in the world. You don't have to look out the window to see the way of heaven. The farther you go, the less you know. So the wise soul doesn't go, but knows; doesn't look, but sees; doesn't do, but gets it done. ~ Lao-Tzu
Soul Gifts quotes by Lao-Tzu
Just as an athlete with natural gifts may fail to develop the fundamental skills necessary to play their sport after their talent fades, so people naturally disposed to faith may fail to develop the skills necessary to sustain them for a lifetime. ~ Stanley Hauerwas
Soul Gifts quotes by Stanley Hauerwas
A life with difficult relationships, filled with obstacles and losses, presents the most opportunity for the soul's growth. ~ Brian Weiss
Soul Gifts quotes by Brian Weiss
I love chocolate cake for breakfast," Peggy stalls, "it sets me up for the day. A little decadence is good for the soul." She's been eating more cake than usual, lately. Impending death does have compensations after all, then, if only chocolate-covered ones. ~ Menna Van Praag
Soul Gifts quotes by Menna Van Praag
You are an Universe of Universes and your soul a source of songs. ~ Ruben Dario
Soul Gifts quotes by Ruben Dario
Now there is a spiritual selfishness which even poisons the good act of giving to another. Spiritual goods are greater than the material, and it is possible for me to love selfishly in the very act of depriving myself of material things for the benefit of another. If my gift is intended to bind him to me, to put him under an obligation, to exercise a kind of hidden moral tyranny over his soul, then in loving him I am really loving myself. And this is a greater and more insidious selfishness, since it traffics not in flesh and blood but in other persons' souls. Natural asceticism presents ~ Thomas Merton
Soul Gifts quotes by Thomas Merton
Only a fool will deny that an abundance of flowers can quicken a woman's blood, and that continuing sun can burn years off a man's back. The poverty of life here augments the power of those influences. We lose our vision, and move like wooden toys: one year we wash the curtains, the next we plant a row of cabbages behind the house; and then comes a summer like that one, with grass soft as rabbit fur, and flowers. ~ Joe Ashby Porter
Soul Gifts quotes by Joe Ashby Porter
When I connect with the animals around me, I connect with their soul. I believe where there is a soul, there is a journey and a purpose. ~ Amy Miller
Soul Gifts quotes by Amy Miller
Maybe his quietness masked a great and boiling soul. ~ Jennifer Donnelly
Soul Gifts quotes by Jennifer Donnelly
Virtually all letter writers confessed how their encounter with Nietzsche's philosophy either emboldened or chastened them, liberated them from old falsehoods, or saddled them with new moral responsibilities. Helen Bachmuller of Dayton, Ohio, wrote to let Förster-Nietzsche know that her brother had inspired the belief that human greatness was still possible in the modern world. Though unworthy of his greatness, he nevertheless awakened in her a longing for something deeper in herself. Nietzsche, Bachmuller confessed, had saved her from her 'own inner emptiness.' The 'Ohio country' she called home had become 'tame and commonplace,' filled with lives 'trivial and ... essentially ugly, for they are engrossed with matters of money and motors, not with work or faith or art.' She regarded the Methodist church near her house as 'vulgar, pretentious.' Though disgusted by the offensive mediocrity around her, she was also chagrined by her own limitations: 'It would be, probably, impossible for you to imagine anything more superficial than I am.' But reading presumably the recently released translation of Förster-Nietzsche's The_Nietzsche-Wagner_Correspondence had exposed Bachmuller to 'depths beyond depths, of one great soul striking fire against another great soul, and I became thrilled. I could feel the harmonies and dissonances, the swell and surge of those two glorious beings, and I felt much more that I cannot express.' Reading Nietzsche enlivened her to the possibility 'for a com ~ Jennifer Ratner-Rosenhagen
Soul Gifts quotes by Jennifer Ratner-Rosenhagen
The walls that caged me were not of this world, but were within my mind. ~ J.D. Stroube
Soul Gifts quotes by J.D. Stroube
Bhagat Singh revered Lajpat Rai as a leader. But he would not spare even Lajpat Rai, when, during the last years of his life, Lajpat Rai turned to communal politics. He then launched a political-ideological campaign against him. Because Lajpat Rai was a respected leader, he would not publicly use harsh words of criticism against him. And so he printed as a pamphlet Robert Browning's famous poem, 'The Lost Leader,' in which Browning criticizes Wordsworth for turning against liberty. The poem begins with the line 'Just for a handful of silver he left us.' A few more of the poem's lines were:
'We shall march prospering, not thro' his presence;
Songs may inspirit us, not from his lyre,' and
'Blot out his name, then, record one lost soul more.'

There was not one word of criticism of Lajpat Rai. Only, on the front cover, he printed Lajpat Rai's photograph! ~ Bipan Chandra
Soul Gifts quotes by Bipan Chandra
What inspires me today is a desire to get closer to an understanding of what my artistic capacities are with the hope of organically sharing my gifts with an audience in the most heightened way I possibly can. ~ Mahershala Ali
Soul Gifts quotes by Mahershala Ali
Hell is only loneliness, a place without play for the soul, a place without God. How could there be God in loneliness when God is presence? ~ Hilary Thayer Hamann
Soul Gifts quotes by Hilary Thayer Hamann
It is possible to make each year bring with it a lasting gift to add to the fullness of experience, to be treasured up, savored, and remembered. They need not be startling, these gifts of the years; they may be things that lie within the reach of all. ~ Grenville Kleiser
Soul Gifts quotes by Grenville Kleiser
ODE TO STEPHEN DOWLING BOTS, DEC'D And did young Stephen sicken, And did young Stephen die? And did the sad hearts thicken, And did the mourners cry? No; such was not the fate of Young Stephen Dowling Bots; Though sad hearts round him thickened, 'Twas not from sickness' shots. No whooping-cough did rack his frame, Nor measles drear with spots; Not these impaired the sacred name Of Stephen Dowling Bots. Despised love struck not with woe That head of curly knots, Nor stomach troubles laid him low, Young Stephen Dowling Bots. O no. Then list with tearful eye, Whilst I his fate do tell. His soul did from this cold world fly By falling down a well. They got him out and emptied him; Alas it was too late; His spirit was gone for to sport aloft In the realms of the good and great. If ~ Mark Twain
Soul Gifts quotes by Mark Twain
Theater feeds my heart and soul. ~ Sara Ramirez
Soul Gifts quotes by Sara Ramirez
As it was, being a bad mother was child's play compared to being a good mother, which was an incessant struggle, a lose-lose situation 24 hours a day; long after the kids were in bed the torment of what I did or didn't do during those hours we were trapped together would scourge my soul. ~ Mary Kubica
Soul Gifts quotes by Mary Kubica
But on that night, Dad staggered in, eyes eerily lit.
The corners of his mouth foaming spit.
His demons planned an overnight stay.
Mom motioned to take the girls away,
hide them in their rooms, safe in their beds.
We closed the doors, covered our heads,
as if blankets could mute the sounds of his blows
or we could silence her screams beneath her pillows.
I hugged the littlest ones close to my chest,
till the beat of my heart lulled them to rest.
Only then did I let myself cry.
Only then did I let myself wonder why
Mom didn't fight back, didn't defend,
didn't confess to family or friend.
Had Dad's demons claimed her soul?
Or was this, as well, another woman's role? ~ Ellen Hopkins
Soul Gifts quotes by Ellen Hopkins
Education is not the taming or domestication of the soul's raw passions - not suppressing them or excising them, which would deprive the soul of its energy - but forming and informing them as art ... ~ Allan Bloom
Soul Gifts quotes by Allan Bloom
The contemporary Christian mind is starved, and as a result we have small, impoverished souls. ~ J.P. Moreland
Soul Gifts quotes by J.P. Moreland
Most kids grow sullen and angry when they're working through issues, but Thanet mustered up another kind of bull-headed strength. The kind that sees beyond circumstances to what really matters. How could anyone hurt a soul that lovely? ~ Laura Anderson Kurk
Soul Gifts quotes by Laura Anderson Kurk
As we advance in the spiritual life and in the practice of systematic self-examination we are often surprised by the discovery of vast unknown tracts of the inner life of the soul. They seem like great plains stretching out in mystery and wrapt in mists that sometimes for a moment lift, or sweep off and leave one looking for one brief instant upon great reaches of one's own life, unknown, unmeasured, unexplored. Men stand at such moments breathless in wonder and in awe gazing upon these great tracts upon which they have never looked before, with kindling eyes and beating hearts; and while they look the mists steal back till all is lost to sight once more and they are left wondering if what they saw was reality, or the creation of their fancy. Or sometimes they see, not far-stretching plains which fill the soul with an awestruck sense of its expansiveness and of how much has been left absolutely uncultivated, not these plains but mountain peaks climbing and reaching upwards till lost in the heavens, echoing it may be with the voice of many streams whose waters fertilize and enrich those small tracts of the soul's life which have been reclaimed and cultivated and which many a man has thought to be his whole inner self, though he never asked himself whence those rich streams had their source. Now he sees how their source lay in unmeasured heights of his own inner being whose existence he never dreamed of before. In one brief instant they have unveiled themselves. He looks again, ~ Basil W. Maturin
Soul Gifts quotes by Basil W. Maturin
Faith has wings. ~ Juliette Power
Soul Gifts quotes by Juliette Power
The book the reader has now before his eyes - from one end to the other, in its whole and in its details, whatever the omissions, the exceptions, or the faults - is the march from evil to good, from injustice to justice, from the false to the true, from night to day, from appetite to conscience, from rottenness to life, from brutality to duty, from Hell to Heaven, from nothingness to God. Starting point: matter; goal: the soul. Hydra at the beginning, angel at the end. ~ Victor Hugo
Soul Gifts quotes by Victor Hugo
How prompt we are to satisfy the hunger and thirst of our bodies; how slow to satisfy the hunger and thirst of our souls! ~ Henry David Thoreau
Soul Gifts quotes by Henry David Thoreau
But this is a true saying among men: the gifts of enemies are no gifts and profitless. ~ Sophocles
Soul Gifts quotes by Sophocles
The reading of the word of God should be performed in solitude, in order that the whole mind of the reader might be plunged into the truths of the Holy Scripture, and that from this he might receive warmth, which in solitude produces tears; from these a man is wholly warmed and is filled with spiritual gifts, which rejoice the mind and heart more than any word. ~ Seraphim Of Sarov
Soul Gifts quotes by Seraphim Of Sarov
My uncle" is the natives' usual name for the tiger, they believing that the soul of each of their ancestors is lodged for eternity in the body of some member of the cat tribe. ~ Jules Verne
Soul Gifts quotes by Jules Verne
Each of us comes into this world separately, one by one. This is not an accident. I think it's the Lord's way of reminding us of the infinite worth of each soul. ~ Dwan J. Young
Soul Gifts quotes by Dwan J. Young
The modern church encourages African-American women to keep others' vineyards, while neglecting their own, in two ways: by venerating Black women's performance of strength and depending upon women's labor and financial support to maintain the church, without providing equal opportunity for Black women to exercise their gifts in ministerial leadership; and by distorting Scripture in a way that encourages suffering and self-sacrifice among Black women. ~ Chanequa Walker-Barnes
Soul Gifts quotes by Chanequa Walker-Barnes
We do not obtain the most precious gifts by going in search of them but by waiting for them. ~ Simone Weil
Soul Gifts quotes by Simone Weil
Magnus could well imagine what the normal reactions would be- the reactions of a boy like James Herondale, sheltered and taught that love was gentle, love was kind, that one should love with all one's heart and give away all one's soul. Magnus could imagine the normal reactions to this girl, a girl whose every gesture, every expression, every line, cried, Love her, love her, love her. ~ Cassandra Clare
Soul Gifts quotes by Cassandra Clare
Stand-up comedy is a very hard thing on the spirit. There are people who transcend it, like Jack Benny and Steve Martin, but in its essence, it's soul-destroying. It tends to turn people into control freaks. ~ Mike Nichols
Soul Gifts quotes by Mike Nichols
Oh Rome! My country! City of the soul! ~ Lord Byron
Soul Gifts quotes by Lord Byron
My soul.
My spirit.
My strength. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Soul Gifts quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Real haiku is the soul of poetry. Anything that is not actually present in one's heart is not haiku. The moon glows, flowers bloom, insects cry, water flows. There is no place we cannot find flowers or think of the moon. This is the essence of haiku. Go beyond the restrictions of your era, forget about purpose or meaning, separate yourself from historical limitations - there you will find the essence of true art, religion, and science. ~ Santoka Taneda
Soul Gifts quotes by Santoka Taneda
Can Christ be in thou heart and thou not know it? Can one king be dethroned and another crowned in thy soul and thou hear no scuffle? ~ William Gurnall
Soul Gifts quotes by William Gurnall
If that's what you want, I'll give that to you. However, I need you to know that my heart, my mind and my soul belong to you. No one else can touch them like you because you and I both know that we are mates. ~ Brey King
Soul Gifts quotes by Brey King
Be calm, be strong, be grateful, and become a lamp full of light, that the darkness of sorrows be annihilated, and that the sun of everlasting joy arise from the dawning-place of heart and soul, shining brightly. ~ Abdu'l- Baha
Soul Gifts quotes by Abdu'l- Baha
Like poetry, in times of intense emotion the image returns to me. Like poetry, it stroked my soul and, by turns, lulled and stoked my senses. ~ Lisa St. Aubin De Teran
Soul Gifts quotes by Lisa St. Aubin De Teran
There are such things as delusions, but not every unlikely vision that the mentally ill have is imaginary. ~ Shepherd Hoodwin
Soul Gifts quotes by Shepherd Hoodwin
What is madness but nobility of the soul at odds with circumstance. ~ Theodore Roethke
Soul Gifts quotes by Theodore Roethke
When you touch someone's hand, you hold them for a moment; when you touch someone's soul, you hold them for eternity. ~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Soul Gifts quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo
People keep putting limitations on themselves and creating this reality that soul music is dead. That's only in their reality. It's not true. To me, Adele is R&B. Bruno Mars is R&B. It's just good songwriting and songs. That is going to last. ~ Ester Dean
