Our lives are shaped by the choices we make, whether we align with our inner truth or succumb to the illusions we create. Intuition and authenticity can illuminate our path, while disconnection from ourselves can lead to struggle and stagnation. This story of two contrasting souls explores these themes, showing how living in harmony with one’s truth can transform both inner and outer worlds. Dive into this tale to reflect on the rivers we all navigate in our journey through life.
"The Tale of Two Souls: Finding Harmony Through Intuition and Truth"
Beyond the mountains, beyond the forests, along a valley lined with blue rivers,
Walked two souls, each carried on its own path.
The first, beautiful and pure, in harmony with the force of life,
Imbued with the wisdom of intuition, inner truth,
And a creative power that shaped a beautiful world...
A world brightened by each of her gentle gestures...
The second soul, was lost and weakened, burdened by lies and the illusions of life,
Far from its own centre and intuition,
Thus also distanced from its source of power.
Every act of everyday creativity was an immense struggle and a great difficulty.
One day, the first soul ran into a river as azure as the sky,
And the nearby meadow flowers greeted her with grateful smiles.
The river surged with doubled strength, flowing through mountains and valleys, creating new worlds whilst nurturing them with its power.
The second soul, too, ran into the river, now murky,
And all the creatures around began to wither,
As the river carried her breath with the breeze across the surrounding valleys,
The leaves of trees lost their life, and the meadow flowers pleaded for the wind to turn away.
The azure river, flowing with the first soul,
Created new, vibrant valleys, nurtured creative powers,
And bestowed kindness upon the people it met.
The murky, sorrowful river, dried up gradually—
No new springs wished to feed it,
And people kept their distance, for the wind it stirred was exhausting, barren,
And far removed from the creative essence of life...
What This Story Teaches Us About Truth and Illusion?
I am fascinated by the subject of intuition and creativity, which is why I wrote this story. It is a tale about two souls who came to Earth and are very different from one another. They are complete opposites.
The first soul is beautiful, pure, in harmony with the power of life, imbued with the wisdom of intuition, inner truth, and creative strength. It creates a beautiful world, brightened by each of its gentle gestures. It symbolises the idea that when we live in harmony with ourselves and our truth, the wisdom of intuition becomes our strength. Such harmony strengthens not only our intuition but also our creativity, which in turn shapes the beautiful world around us. The touch of this creativity transforms the surrounding reality.
The second soul, which enters a different river, symbolises the state of being distanced from one’s truth. When we live in illusion—that is, in a certain lie to ourselves—we create a false image of life, one that deceives primarily us, not others. This illusion distances us from ourselves, from our intuition, from our inner voice, and from our source of power. Life becomes heavier, because it is hard to live without our natural strengths, which are inherent to everyone when they follow their own truth and intuition. Here, every day turns into a difficult burden.
This story introduces the motif of the river. The first soul enters an azure river, and the nearby meadow flowers greet it with gratitude. The river flows with doubled strength through mountains and valleys, creating new worlds and nurturing them with its energy. This symbolises how living in harmony with oneself affects not only us but also the surrounding world. People and the entire reality around us sense this energy, and harmony draws them closer to us.
On the other hand, the second soul enters a murky river, which grows even murkier. Everything around it begins to wither. As the river carries its breath across the surrounding valleys, the leaves of the trees lose their life, and the flowers plead for the wind to change direction. This symbolises that living out of harmony with oneself leads not only to a loss of something within us or a disconnection from ourselves but also to the decay of what surrounds us. Such a life is difficult, devoid of lightness and positive creative force.
Perhaps it is worth looking into our own eyes sometimes and asking the question: “What illusions am I creating? Is my river murky or azure?” Life is never perfect because we are only human. However, I hope this story inspires you, even just a little, to follow your intuition and your own truth. I believe that by doing so, the world around us will become more beautiful.
