Most of us live for years determined not to look too closely into our soul. We don't want to get that well acquainted with ourselves and with the world we live in. We worry that if we looked closely at what we want and what's available, if we saw all that was happening in our soul, we'd give up or go mad or maybe become religious fanatics, nut cases for Jesus who hold up John 3:16 placards at football games -- or maybe worse.

I'm guessing this is an excerpt from the book. Great quote. I think it really challenges people to look at themselves. It's a scary thought sometimes, examining our lives and getting in touch with our soul, because things begin to stand out to us and we realize something needs to change. Thank for sharing this!
