The ideal voice

The voice we have in our head tells us of the great things we can have in out lives. It gives us visions of big houses and fast cars. Almost half of all teens believe that they will be famous one day and the other half want to save the world. This voice is a gift and can help us to ask for what we desire. When we have to commit to the effort to achieve our visions of grander we fold.

What is going on with the voice? Little things tend to add up and the visions get blurred. The heart gets broken or our failures look like personality defects and the voice turns on us. It may not always be the big issues that makes us compromise our desires. It may be a bunch of little things that our ego sees as being just to much to overcome. The voice tells us of an easy way out and our dreams give way to the comfort zone.

If you are young and reading this get committed to your desires and do not compromises your visions. If you are older, dust off the old dreams, pump up the old songs that moved you once and commit to living out your life with passion. You may not know this but it takes just as much commitment to do nothing as it does to have everything. In other words it takes effort to stand still in a life of motion. It is all about choice. If you are stuck in the comfort zone the pain you feel is your potential passing you by. I say passing because life is always in motion. Depression comes from a hidden anger. The anger is just built up potential looking for it's propose or expression.

You know exactly what you want now and you may just have to sit still and listen to a repressed heart that has been quieted by years of the egos lack of self respect. You are worth more than you will ever know and the heart knows what is right for you. Follow the heart. The heart may feel the fear that the ego brings but the ego creates the doubt.

The ego thinks it is alone in the world but the heart calls out to others and when it makes contact ask for some help from the ones that cross your path. The ego says "you are being childish" and the heart says "but I am also happy".

Wayne Dyer says "so many men have been killed at war and we have lost so many lives that have gone unlived. Those men did not have the chance to fulfill their propose in life and we can not afford anyone else to not contribute their gifts to the world."
