As humans, we all expireince aches and pains throughout our lives. Headaches, stomachaches, heartaches....We tend to fix the minor aches and pains with tylenol, advil, perhaps even a couple of antiacids, and that undenialbly delectable pint of ben and jerry's, which seems to be the cure all of any heart ache of the female population. Have you ever had a soulache though, and if you do, what do you do to treat it?
I think a soulache is far worse than any head, stomach or heartache than I ever had, becasue when my soul aches, it is my whole entire soul. It's happened on more than one occasion, dissapointment, feeling like I epic failed spirtually, when the day seems off....Many reasons seem to set it off, and maybe its becasue the soul is YOU...your life, everything that makes you beautiful, strong, weak, happy, sad, angry, frustrated, lonely, estatic...a combination of so many things, that is hard to describe, yet you know exactly what it is. You know how to describe the pain, but you don't know exactly where...you know you just hurt and you hurt bad. So what can you do...no pill can take away the pain, no amount of men in white coats can come up with a substance that will cure this kind of ache.
When your soul aches, you pray and your pray and your pray so much that you can hear God whisper in your heart. You cry for no unexplainable reason. and if you can think of a reason, you can't describe it. In the end, when the tears are ultimatley dried, and you can no longer utter a prayer out of your lips, you feel no more pain, but only love. This is loving till it aches and as Mother Theresa once said: "If love till it aches, there can be no more hurt, but only love." When your sould aches, its is aching for love. Love lost, love found, love that you wish was returned, love that wish you could understand....Your soul is love. It's the love that God has for you and its the love you have and give...In that center of everthing that is described in the second paragraph, is love.
We live everyday, so esentially we love everyday, even though we might not realize it. Or at least that's how I see it. Maybe we don't always fix our soulache, becasue maybe we don't always realize it,but when we do, the end result is a growth of some sort. I don't think there's a regress in these situations, only a progression.
Hearts, hugs, n' prayers for always....

I like the idea of a soulache. As painful as they are to endure... they do tend to make us better people if we 'fix' them correctly with love. :)
