What Makes Your Soul Happy

Above all what makes your soul happy? Recently after a week with a hundred plus degree fever I awoke to this question. Details in What-Makes-Your-Soul-Happy-Bob Davis Podcast 1144.

This Question

Firstly none other than Joseph Campbell suggested that as time goes on and we age we’re left with this question.

This Question Is Dangerous

Certainly when we’re young we don’t make the time for these kinds of thoughts,

Even more a thought like what makes your soul happy is even dangerous.

Because we’re bringing things into this world.

For example family, marriage, getting that great job, starting businesses and so on.

In short making our dreams come true.

But as we age eventually the world recedes and the body gives out.

Of course we know this.

Province of Any Age

Therefore while it is the province of age to nurture our soul it doesn’t hurt to devote some time to this question.

Another Year Of Nomad Life?

As a matter of fact as a nomad I had been considering whether I want to continue to do this.

Quartzsite Nomad Experience

In light of this question I suggest in this podcast that I felt I’d had it with the whole “Quartzsite Nomad Experience” last winter.

Wondering Why

And really wonder why I do this at all sometimes.

On the other hand there is the question of what makes my soul happy.

Looking Back

As an illustration some thoughts come to my about my own childhood.

Wild Child

Because I was a wild child much of my motivations and actions in life seemed impulsive.

Elemental.

No Plan Might Just Be A Plan

And yet my decisions to do this or that sometimes on a whim seemed to always work out.

Changes

Given these points I have been considering some changes and wondering whether I want to continue for a fifth year on the road.

To say nothing of the fever.

So when I woke up and asked myself that question…

The answers formed this podcast.

State Of The Summer 2024

Firstly for this State of The Summer 2024 Report I don’t like to draw attention to negatives. But a whole month has gone by with no podcast!  Let’s talk about it in State-Of-The-Summer-2024-Bob Davis Podcast 1143.

Nothing To Say?

Secondly much of my radio silence over the past few weeks is due to the fact that I have nothing to say.

With this is mind is it writer’s block?

Or am I lost in summer’s bliss?

Busy Summer

Certainly it has been a busy summer.

Of course a lot of socializing on the Wisconsin Shore.

Too Much Talking

What’s more a lot of talking.

Too much talking.

To be tired of talking is altogether strange for me.

But there it is.

On A Path

Balanced against canoe rides on the still lake and dinners around the campfire there’s a lower octave.

Accordingly we seem to be a on path.

With this in mind there doesn’t seem to be much more to say about it.

Won’t Chase Likes and Shares

In addition I don’t want to be the kind of content creator who mines his life and everyone in it to chase likes and shares.

Saving Some Of This Summer For Myself

Moreover there are some experiences I save just for myself.

The Lake’s First Signs Of Fall

After that as I watch the lake I feel the first signs of fall.

Time To Go

All things considered it’s time to go.

In short it won’t be long til I am back on the road.

Decisions About Fall Travel

All in all I’ve made two decisions about this fall and winter.

To that end which way to head and whether to camp alone this winter wherever I end up.

Crackling Summer

Summing up it’s been a summer crackling with observations, friends, food and some adventure…

No sooner than I have discovered I am exhausted from all of this…

Ready To Travel

And preparing to travel again.
