Episode 22: Soulfully Bankrupt - a podcast by Don Martinez

How many of us go through the motions of our everyday life like zombies?  Each day, we feed our wallet, our family, our ego, but forget about our soul.  We become so involved in being successful,  consequently, we forget how to be human.  We lose sight, we lose perspective and leave ourselves soulfully bankrupt.  Do we ever really feel fulfilled by the life we lead, and finally,  what happens when we don't? Recently, somebody I know lived through a terrible tragedy.  In a single moment the life of his entire family was shattered forever.  As I contemplated what this meant for his family, I could not help but reflect upon my own life.  One phrase stuck with me from those days, being soulfully bankrupt.  The cold reality that life is transient.  A fleeting gift we often take for granted. Totally unscripted and unrehearsed, I share with you my journey of realization as I have come to finally realize that I need to feed my soul.  I share with you a personal, almost spiritual experience I had as I got behind my camera for the first time in a year.  For several brief hours, I shut my logical mind down, and allowed myself to see the world through my camera lens.  Framing the world around me, I let my imagination run free.  Finally, I could see, even briefly, all the stories of the world around me. I invite you to join me on this powerful experience, as I share my reflections.  My challenge to each of you, how can you feed your soul?  What can you do in your life to help you be all that you want and make life all that you have dreamed possible? Thanks for being a part of the journey!
