My voice, for whatever reason, could not speak these thoughts or express the feelings I felt, for many years this was the way it was, until one day, I found that I had a voice. This voice was not an uttered word, but a written one.
What an amazing liberation that was, to free these observations inside of me, about people, places, life, religion, hope, fear and everything else in between.
I have been grateful to relay my observations about other people and in doing so, observations about myself that needed to be expressed, needed to be shared, even if nobody ever read them, by offering them to the world on their own merit, at least they took a form outside of myself.
Many times I have wondered what this sharing would lead to? Anything? Are there others who think like me? This voice of expression is honest and from the heart and it is truly me. It feels sometimes when I write something about gratitude or feelings I feel free, totally free from all of the expectations and restraints of life and of others.
It should be easy to leave these behind, the negative voices in your head, to follow the true voice inside your heart. Writing has allowed me to see this voice, hopefully someday soon
it will help me to trust it. As each day comes, I feel so much hope in my heart that this will be the day that magic happens for me. Yet that is determined by me.
I am grateful for the ability to write and express what I feel inside myself. Each small step to understanding life, or other people or the Universe and how we all work together is amazing and my vehicle for this exploration is my voice and that voice is to write what is inside my heart.
Being yourself is the scariest thing you can be because there is no facade to hide behind, the world can see you and judge you and that can be difficult. Yet it is only in being ourselves that our true talents can show, I am grateful to at least be on the path to this truth.
