The Heart and Soul

There exists a phrase spoken over and over again. We call upon it at times when we face our biggest struggles. It's so deceptively simple, yet vastly misunderstood.

What is this phrase you ask?

Heart and Soul.

"He put his heart and soul into it."
"Give it your heart and soul!"

These two words are so often used together that I fear they may have lost their identity as individual characteristics.

Heart is what we feel. What we believe in. It's that feeling for the ones we love, the memories we cherish, and things we hope for. It holds the emotion that drives us. It is the heart.

But the soul, the soul holds the unrelenting force that wells up inside you and compels you. The souls is everything you have ever dreamed, everything you have ever imagined. It's the power that keeps you up at night wondering about the intricacies of the world. The soul is the part we all-to-often forget. It falls by the wayside. But I say hold onto your soul. It is these dreams, these wonderings, these relentless imaginations that define who you are.

Hold on to these things.

Hold onto you soul.
