Many of us have been racing ahead in life thinking we could out run ourselves only to crash over & over and sometimes crashing real hard. In another type of confusion some sought help through medicines (legal or street), religion, treatment centers, various 12 step groups or psychiatry. We of US know all of these methods are great stepping stones, however our collective wisdom is other ways are wonderful but they are just way too limiting or exclusive and not sufficient for US desiring to live as fulfilled human beings!

We were mostly playing life by someone else’s song, not necessarily or entirely our own!

Before discovering US, we had periods when we mismanaged even our own lives at the very least. We did not consciously live and enjoy life as probably was originally intended. We were convinced we needed something more and we thought we had discovered it in doing, having or controlling, not merely being. We placed doing, having or controlling at times ahead of the well being or serenity of any or all of those whom we claimed to be near or dear to us.

We had to have rewards or recognition, healthy or unhealthy, at all costs. We often neglected and/or did not appreciate many people, but most of all we neglected and didn’t appreciate ourselves. We continually sought to obtain Significance and/or Security externally rather than naturally from within ourselves. Yes, the outside stuff is great, but it’s whats inside that makes everything everywhere have real meaning!

Through our inability to obtain internal satisfaction, we unconsciously were creating a larger divide between our soul and real peace. That kind of real peace inside continually eluded or was fleeting if it ever occurred at all. We at times felt we had no real connection or grounding to the world around us. Most of us realized, after the fact, that in our unconscious survival mode we were actually reducing our ability to nurture ourselves let alone those we knew and claimed were important to us.

A soul hole is such an underestimated and subtle thief of life that we many of us may have eventually believed this was all there was to life and so be it! It may have even told us regularly, we were OK-fine, there was nothing missing or that nothing could be improved in our worlds.

None of these options were enough or was completely capable of filling our soul hole. Disenchantment always resurfaced or continued to progress until, in a moment of clarity, mild despair, total defeat or desperation, we sought help from other soul warriors found in Unbounded Souls.

After coming to US we realized we were unconscious or confused or misdirected or unintended or highly ungrounded people. We discovered we are gifted & blindly struggled with an internal malady of our souls. We now know and are convinced that trying to fulfill our soul hole alone will never adequately allow us to receive all the peace available to US!
