Find your soul tribe
Love yourself!
Finding your soul tribe… have you done this or are you surrounded by people you can’t relate to and who can’t relate to you?
A few years ago when I moved to St. Louis, I had spoken with a colleague at work, and I had mentioned that I was in the process of finding my soul tribe. She looked at me quizzically, and said “Good luck with that!”
A couple of years ago I had run into her at an event, and she asked me if I had managed to find my soul tribe. She seemed incredulous when I had answered a very happy “yes!”
When she asked me what that actually meant, I realized that for many people this may seem to be a foreign concept.
What is a Soul Tribe?
A soul tribe is a group of people or varied individuals (not necessarily connected with each other) with who we feel a lot in common, people who we don’t need to be explaining ourselves, our life choices or the activities and interests we choose.
Years ago I felt like a fish out of water. I was an artist, raised by an artist, so making art wasn’t a hobby, but something I NEEDED to do, as much as I need to breathe air.
I had very few people in my life who understood what it meant to BE an artist, so I received a lot of criticism for wasting my time on something which wasn’t earning me money.
In order to gain their acceptance I had tried to bend myself into what they would approve of, yet I never gained that, but lost pieces of my self-worth in the process.
When I heard about the concept of finding a soul tribe, it clicked in my mind, and explained why I wasn’t gaining the approval of the people who were in my life. I realized they weren’t part of my soul tribe, and no matter how hard I tried I’d never be happy with them, and they’d never “get” me!
Once I started seeking out relationships with people of like mind to me, I found the friction dropped out of my life, I felt happier and was more at peace!
When I made that simple shift in my life, all the other points in the above meme became attainable and do-able!
I encourage you to try this step if you find yourself hitting against walls which confine you and prevent you from becoming your best self!
