The best love is the kindthat awakens the soul and makes us reach for more,that plants a fire in our heartsand brings peace to our minds.And that's what you've given me.That's what I'd hoped to give to you forever.~ The Notebook

It's been a little over 6 months since I wrote the post Is The Camera A Tool Or A Barrier While Travelling? and took it as an inspiration to start the #Soulie project on My Yatra Diary... and today, the time has come when I have to call this project a break. With a new yatra to Varanasi coming up next week and a long backlog of travel posts (remember Pandharpur Yatra begins?!) eyeing me for their attention, I am finding neither the time nor energy to devote in my soulies on the blog, unfortunately.
Having said that however, something that I started spontaneously, almost on a whim, it feels so good to have enjoyed every minute of the journey of this project. Picking up a picture from my travels and pausing just a while, to write more about those moments, to touch something that is no longer existing except in a small still photograph... has been a very gratifying experience, both personally and professionally. It's been like a relationship, a nurturing one, one that has nourished me with love, love of the best kind as The Notebook says in the quote above and I hope somewhere at least, she has been able to give you the same as well.
I can't thank enough all the wonderfully inspiring people who have rallied behind the project, either with their work, encouragement, curiosity, creativity or support. A very BIG thank you to all of you!
As for now, the time has come to close the #Soulie chapter for a while and keep this particular part of the diary aside. Although I hope to continue it on Instagram but on the blog, it's time to focus on writing in depth on my yatras that have waited in the pipeline for pretty long to be blogged about. 
Before bidding goodbye however, today being the soulie sharing day, so thrilled to share a few marvellous posts that I have saved, as and when I had liked them. I hope you'll visit the profiles as always to cheer their talent along as they go along creating magic with their pictures. However, I would also like to add that this list is no way exhaustive. Going by the truckloads of fabulous posts that I see almost everyday on Instagram and the paltry number that I have saved from them, I can safely conclude that I am very lazy when it comes to clicking the save button on Instagram!

♡ We need one person we can trust. A safe harbor. And it takes only one, it's enough. Alone is not enough. One is. You are rich when you have that one. It can soothe the pain and create cracks in our darkest struggles. A gentle caress which says: I see you. And I will stay. Together we'll get through. And tiny rays of light can eventually begin to enter ♡ #roseonmybalcony #waterdroplets #september #naturesmiracles #lovelydetails #lightA post shared by Elisabeth (@elisabeth.7270) on Sep 18, 2017 at 11:18am PDT
