The Story of My Heart is an inspiring and personal account of a soul's awakening. In this 1883 autobiography, naturalist and journalist Richard Jefferies describes his journey through abandoning his notions of past and future in favor of being in the present moment; the eternal Now. Freeing himself from ordinary limitations to perception, he uses the present for guidance and spiritual sustenance; finding the dazzling world around him becoming a window for the soul. This gives Jefferies a keen awareness of his soul's infinite nature and a deep love for what he terms "soul-life".
