Book Preview:

#1 The soul is the river of energy that underlies the activity of all life. It is real, and it lives on after our bodies die. If you are in the habit of negating the longings of your soul, or if the idea of having a soul makes you nervous, then consider Rumi’s advice: When you do something from your soul, you feel a river moving in you.

#2 The stories in this part of the book are about what it takes to listen to and respond to the call of your soul. If you regularly paint or sing or write poetry or listen to uplifting music, or if you meditate and pray, you know what it feels like when your soul and you are in contact.

#3 When Route 25 leaves the mountains of northern New Mexico, the city of Albuquerque suddenly appears like a mirage. I had never visited Albuquerque, and I went looking for a psychic.

#4 The Road of Truth was the home of The Mouthpiece of Spirit. The psychic there had the most hair I had ever seen. She had a dusky voice and a regional twang. She reminded me of Mae West. I was afraid to ask her for life direction, because I knew that I would not be able to solve my problem using the same mixed-up thinking that got me into it in the first place.
