My soul is hurting/shrinking/detaching/dying

Thank you to both Frank and Karen. I feel comforted knowing that my words were communicated and understood by people here. I will continue to meditate on sending my love to those who are suffering in hopes of giving my brother and sister souls some comfort and aid.

Karen-I will check out the music as I do find sounds such as the Solfeggio Frequencies do help me on a soul level.

Love to all.

Hi Francie,

Here is a poem Softy left in my social group " the Sanctuary ".
I think it's beautifull and conveys comfort and peace.

May it reach you with kindness and bring light to your souL

Kindness
mudra

I'll rest my arm upon your shoulder,
And whisper the words you need to hear.
I'll rest my comfort on your mind,
I promise you now theres nothing to fear.

So sit down, and spill your soul.
I'll piece you back together,
And make you whole.

I'll rest my head upon your shoulder,
And show you the love you need to see.
I'll rest my warmth upon your ice,
I promise you now you'll soon be free.

So sit down, and spill your soul.
I'll piece you back together,
And make you whole.

Don't let this dark shade the bright,
Or let the pain undermine the light.
Just sit back and let yourself loose,
I promise to cut you from this noose.

So sit down, and spill your soul.
I'll piece you back together,
And make you whole.

You can trust me, you can confide.
Let me be the one, to be your guide,

I can show you the way,
The way to be one again.
So sit down, and spill your soul.
I'll piece you back together,
And make you whole.

Chris and Mudra,

Thank you both very much for you kind thoughts that you shared with me. I am glad I started the thread as fear/insecurity almost stopped me from doing so.

Chris-your words are very wise and helped me greatly!

Mudra-the poem you shared truly gave me insight and warmth.

Thanks to both of you again.

Love,

Francie

Hi Francie
I have been where you were earlier and you did the right thing.
"If your feeling blue find some one worse off than you"

Somtimes it is hard to find gratitude for a moment or two but we all have a lot to be gratfull for and through gratitude we are uplifted.

Other Chris has it right.
The soul is untouched by all this and is pure pristine ever new.
it is through difficult moments that we grow.
May there be few of those but much growth for you.
Everything is a blessing an opportunity if we can but see it.

With love chris

feeler, Jnana and greybeard,

Thank you for your words. They have given me great insight!

Perhaps it was not my soul that was feeling grief earlier as others have pointed out. Soul is the only word that felt right about the part of me that was feeling as though it wanted to flee.
I have received wonderful guidance from this thread and through visitor messages and PM's. I am very grateful for all of the help I have been given. Everyone here is so lovely and I am so happy to have all of you as my friends.

Love,

Francie

francie,

I have had many such days/moments in the last few months, sometimes from the briefest glimpse of a vision of the future. I started to watch the video you mentioned and stopped. It just wasn't what I needed right now!

Your soul may be hurting, but my interpretation is that what you are feeling is the grief that comes from deep compassion for those that have been/are/will be suffering. Compassion is a good thing.

I think you handled the situation well by sending love to those who are suffering. It is also important to send love to those who are CAUSING the suffering in order to "soften them up". When you can do so in private or with trusted friends, let the grief flow through you. Don't try to bottle it up.

Hang in there. Your heart is in the right place, and that's what matters.
