If you want to discover your life purpose, all you have to do is follow the trail of breadcrumbs. Only in real-life, the breadcrumbs would represent your desires. You know you are on the right track when you feel the tingle, that sensation that motivates you to do and explore more. You are discovering your life's purpose when you feel that certain spark towards something or someone.
Shamans believed in a concept called soul retrieval. This is when a person's soul breaks into a bunch of tiny little pieces. These pieces go and hide in the underworld. Many shamans work diligently to piece back the parts of someone soul. However, it is an incredibly arduous task. I believe that a person cannot find the pieces of their soul in one lifetime. They have to keep coming back, occupying a physical body to explore their life's purpose.
We've all had those moments when we are completely frustrated by a problem or situation. Then, just when we are about to give up, someone or something comes into our lives and solves it immediately. We've all experienced those aha moments that made us see things from a totally different perspective. We've all had those sudden epiphanies after reading a book, watching a movie, or being inspired by an individual.

We have all experienced it; we just didn't know what it was. We've all had that sudden rush of excitement when we feel that we have finally figured something out. We have all experienced that spark when we meet someone who makes our heart's flutter. We have all been frustrated by a life problem or situation. And just when we are about to give up, something or someone comes into our lives and inspires us. These are the moments when everything clicks. It is in these moments that we get clarity and allows us to see the big picture.
The number one mistake that people make when piecing their soul together is trying to make pieces fit. If the pieces don't go in easily, then that means that they don't belong in that position. Just remember, you are on the right path when you produce the best results with the least possible effort. It is not about being a hard-worker, or about being lazy for that matter. For no one is naturally lazy. People are naturally productive when they are doing something that they are truly passionate about. And people are naturally loving and respectful when they are with someone they are truly passionate about.
God or Divine power will not be able to send you any more pieces of your soul. You will then be trapped by your own inability to express your desires.

There is a reason why Thomas Edison failed more than 1000 times before he was able to put together all the pieces to invent the light bulb. This is because the slightest variation wouldn't work. He had to find the exact match.
Our souls are very much the same way. We have to find the exact match, the perfect piece in order to finish our puzzle. This will allow us to evolve, follow our calling and serve humanity. Just know that every thought, idea, dream that you have is a message from Obatala. When you meet someone, and there is a spa
