Kim Russo - Your Soul Purpose: Learn How to Access the Light Within

Dear Reader,

Thank you for picking up Your Soul Purpose! As you read through these pages you might wonder if this book really can answer the questions you have. Will they point you in the right direction to find your own truth and the peace within that truth? Because I only deal with truthssomething that often scares usyou might already be contemplating whether or not you should continue reading. Let me say this: If you have gotten this far in your thinking, this far on the page, then the answer is yes! Go for it!

Like many people alive on Earth today, you may be wondering What is this life all about? For what purpose was I born? Am I really who I think I am? Am I really who others think I am? If you believe in reincarnation (and Ill explain that in the book) you might be wondering if youre here to suffer through the lessons you didnt learn in a previous life. Maybe youre worried you had previously slanted toward evil and now its payback time. I can hear you asking if your purpose is really to wake up every weekday at 5 a.m. to catch a crowded train, or sit in backed-up traffic, only to get to a job where no one even notices your accomplishments. There are many of you who are wondering when your current job will be taken over by a computer software program. (Hint: That may be sooner than you think.) And there are the voices of so many of you in my ear, who are reevaluating the relationships in your life that dont seem to be serving your highest good or highest purpose. These relationships pull energy from you and from your soul, leaving you empty and wrung-out like a used dishrag. You are continually searching for ways to escape these relationships, but the lies creep in and convince you that you made your bed and now you must lie in it. The only word in that sentence that is true is the lie.

If any of the above applies to you, then keep on reading!

You may have done a bit of soul-searching online already. Or maybe you went to a bookstore or to the library and worked your way through nonfiction, religious, and spiritual books, all the way to Your Soul Purpose. Some of you may have selected this book simply because you are familiar with The Haunting of... , the TV show where I help celebrities solve the mysteries surrounding their otherworldly experiences. If so, then you already know me, my face, my Long Island accentand you know I dont mess around. I have to tell it like it is! Others of you may have read my first book, The Happy Medium: Life Lessons from the Other Side. In those pages I told my personal story of finding, accepting, and understanding the spiritual gifts that have led me to discover my soul purpose.

In The Happy Medium, I also shared stories of how I met and got to know my many spiritual teachers. These teachers range from Kali, my husbands spirit guide, whom I stumbled into by accident, to a woman I met by chance (or not!), Holly, who stalked me until I stopped to listen to the many truths she was offering to share with me. One of the things I came to know through Holly was that no matter what your faith, following, beliefs, or disbeliefs, the spiritual world exists outside these distinctions, transcends them, and can peacefully coexist with them. These messengers, and many others Ive met over the past 20-plus years, have imparted valuable wisdom that theyve collected since the beginning of time. They have helped me to better understand the mysteries of The Universe and the seemingly unknowable; theyve uncovered answers to questions Id been asking since before I could even form words.

I consider these wise teachers, here on Earth as well as in the spirit world, to be the gurus who have shown up for me when I, the student, was ready to open my heart and receive the wisdom of their teachings. As is expected, there have been some ideas thrown at me that did not resonate with my soul. In those cases, I took what I needed and left the rest. My goal in writing this book is not to convince you of anything, and not to be your personal guru. My goal is to help you find the guru that resides inside each and every one of you. So, as I do when Im receiving lessons, take what you need and leave what doesnt work for you.

In Your Soul Purpose, Ill walk you through the steps necessary to get to know yourself and to get to know God through yourself. Ill help you identify your passion, which is your purpose, so that you can live a life honoring that passion and gift. And Ill tell you about a new spirit guide who recently showed up when I least expected. Hes the one whos helping me write this book and he told me about the major paradigm shifts occurring in the world today. There are many more details on that in the final chapter of this book.

Whether youre a celebrity, a stay-at-home mom or dad, a construction worker, a surgeon, a librarian, a physics professor, a college student, or anything in between: You are holding the very book designed to help you. No matter what your profession, level of education, level of wealth, religion, or country of origin, you and I and all the other readers are essentially alike. We are one and the same in our needs and desires.

Like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, each one of us yearns to find our way home, the place where we are loved and feel safe. Were usually not sure where that place is or how to get there. We pick up friends along the way, people with brains, courage, and heart. These people are searching too; together we wander down the yellow brick road of life. Of course, there are good witches and bad witches. And lets not forget those crazy-eyed flying monkeys who scare the heck outta us on this journey! The world has an endless number of external barriers trying to distract us on our way home. What we fail to realize during this seemingly treacherous journey is that we dont need to take that yellow brick road at all. We dont need to wander so far. The answer, the home were looking for, is nesting inside each of us, pulsing with energy and purpose. And this purpose, this passion, is what we are supposed to do with our lives. That, along with the other details of your life, is written on what I call the Master Blueprint.

Naturally, youre wondering where this blueprint is and why you dont have access to it. Well, you do! The blueprint is held by a Higher Intelligence and creator of all things. We are all sparks of this
