THE “SOUL HUNGER” WAKE-UP CALL:
When the Soul Rebels
BY BEV JANISCH
F
or many of us, there comes a time
in our life when we begin to ask the big
questions: Who am I? Is this all there is?
What is the purpose of my life?
There is something inside us that knows
that there may just be something in life
that we’re missing.
Inside, this often feels like a gap between
who we are, how we’re living our lives and
who we are meant to become. I’ve heard
some women say that they feel “two-
faced.” Meaning, who they are on the
inside, does not match how they live on
the outside.
I hear it on a daily basis—women feeling
like something inside of them is starving,
not in the physical sense, but in a spiritual
sense.
This sense that something may be missing
in the midst of an abundant life may
subside for short periods of time when
we’ve distracted ourselves with something
exciting. At some point, however, we begin
to realize that no amount of distraction
is going to alleviate the inner longings.
