“Out of the mouths of babes” sometimes come great insights and wisdom. Yet, more often than not, we miss out on them, if we are not paying attention or dismiss them as just kid-talk. Kids will be kids, except when they are being their old soul selves in young little bodies.

As souls, some of them may be further alo...

Especially in this day and age, we’re often taught as children not to talk to strangers. Yet, if we isolate ourselves or avoid communicating, we limit ourselves from being the creative spiritual being that we are.

This is a big part of fulfilling our soul purpose. Tune-in to this episode of Living The Mira...
