Quote of the day: ” ‘You are late,’ he said. ‘I have been expecting you forever.’ ” ~ William Kent Krueger Northwest Angle
Blue Beauty - Macro shot of petals
I’ve been reading the latest book by one of my favorite authors, William Kent Krueger. Krueger writes novels that are part mystery, part thriller, with a deft touch of humanity and wisdom sprinkled throughout. His books are set in Northern Minnesota, especially the Boundary Waters area, one of my favorite places on earth.
Yesterday, when I read the quote above, I got goosebumps. It felt like I was hearing my soul speaking. Odd, I know, but I find wisdom and truth in the oddest places. I do feel as if I’ve come home to myself and my soul in recent months and I can imagine that part of me that knows who I am better than my conscious self, saying, “You’re late. I have been expecting you forever,” full of love and patience and trust that I would find my way home eventually.
What would your soul say to you today?

My sould would say, “Be kind to yourself.”

Ah, yes. That’s another one my soul could say as well.
