Soul

Moonwind:
“[regarding lost souls] Some people just can’t let go of their own anxieties and obsessions leaving them lost and disconnected from life. And this is the result.”

Moonwind:
“Lost Souls are not that different from those in the zone. The zone is enjoyable but when that joy becomes an obsession, one becomes disconnected from life.”

22 (as Joe): “But I want to try a few things because, I don’t know, some of it is not as boring as it is at the You Seminar, and if Connie can find something she loves here, maybe I can too.”

22 (as Joe): “Is all this living really worth dying for?”

22 (as Joe): They say you’re born to do something but how do you figure out what that thing is? I mean, what if you pick up the wrong thing? Or somebody else’s thing? You know? Then you’re stuck?

Curley (Barber): “I wouldn’t call myself stuck, but I never planned on cuttin’ heads for a livin’.”

22 (as Joe): “Wait, but you were born to be a barber, weren’t you?”

Curley (Barber): I wanted to be a veterinarian.

22 (as Joe): That’s too bad. You’re stuck as a barber and now you’re unhappy.

Curley (Barber): Whoa, whoa. Slow your roll, Joe. I’m happy as a clam, my man. Not everyone can be Charles Drew inventing blood transfusions… I may not be doing blood transfusions but I most definitely am saving lives.”

Dorothea: I heard this story about a fish.
He swims up to this older fish and says, “I’m trying to find this thing they call the ocean.”
”The Ocean?” says the older fish. “That’s what you’re in right now.”
”This?” says the young fish. “This is water. What I want is the ocean.”

Counselor Jerry: “We don’t assign purposes. Where did you get that idea?

Soul Joe: Because I have piano. It’s what I was born to do. That’s my spark.Counselor Jerry: A spark isn’t a soul’s purpose.

[Later]

Soul Joe: “Your spark isn’t your purpose. That last box fills in when you’re ready to come live.”
