If we emerge ourselves in the outside world and allow our inner life to shrink, like a stream that disappears underground only a trickle remains on the surface. When we devote no time for the inner life, we lose the habit of soul. The deeper habit of who we are and what we are here are visited less and less. If we fail to acquaint ourselves with our soul, we remain strangers in our own life.  (John O’Donohue)
