Your Soul Song
Last night my husband and I had a date night. The first one in…too long. For Christmas Kieron bought us tickets to see . A live music group that takes modern songs back in time, changing them to sound like they came from another time. They are incredible. So we got dressed up retro, getting into the spirit of it. We have seen them before, the night we got engaged 11 years ago. So we knew the sort of evening we were going to have.
What we weren’t prepared for was one of the singers Effie. She was sensational. Her voice exploding from her heart, out into the room and into the audience. Into me. Slamming into my body and reorganising me with a rendition of “The Ghost of You” by My Chemical Romance.
But it was her final song, Hallelujah that has stayed with me. Tears blurring my eyes as I listened. Goosebumps rising on my arms. As she sang her heart, no, her soul out. She stood, centre stage, and sung her soul loud and clear for all to hear.
And it made me think, what if she was too scared to do that? What if she was worried about being too much, too big, too visible. Her beautiful voice and soul would be never heard.
It made me think of all the parts of me I have kept hidden, small or quiet. What if I never did the thing my soul was here to do? What if I wasn’t brave enough to let my soul sing and step out of what was expected of me, and create what I have created?
So what soul gift are you keeping hidden for the fear of being seen? The fear of not being good enough. What song is your soul here to sing? And how can you let your soul be heard?
What if they are waiting to see you, waiting to hear you? What if the universe has been waiting for you all along?
