Soul Talk

Read this charismatic line today. 

“…the empire of the soul.”

In Chapter Two of Chromophobia by David Batchelor.

It struck me hard.

Who is the empire of our souls?

Well. I suggest it’s you, me and I of course.

We are the champions of our souls. We are the rulers.

But are we though?

Earlier in the day I’d felt a change of spirit.

It wasn’t too cold outside. No rain. The snow was gone.

Won’t be long, spring will be here.

From the outside looking in, is it what we see, feel, hear, touch, smell and taste that governs our souls?
That rules the empire of our souls?

Think about it.

Does it come from the outside, the inside, or both?
