A whispering voice from deep within
A gentle push from inside the core
Not always ready for what’s new,
We search for reasons why we’re pushed for more
We dismiss the voice and turn away
Not listening to the options, it gives
We look outside to drown the sound
Not knowing it offers more ways to live
It speaks to us on various days
Though we don’t always make room for the voice
It persists and showers its care
That gentle push that leads to good choices

That inner voice is magical, an ordinary, taken-for-granted magic.

guilty of this a lot and appreciate how you have gently stated it in your verses. a gentle reminder that if we ignore that voice and don’t trust it we are being dishonest with our selves.you have made us that ordinary magic, I like how you flipped this prompt about and focused on what is inside of us not out.

Most certsinly Astrid, our intuition can be most helpful… 🙂 …that inner voice can also get us in trouble sometimes! Oh the quandary…

I think that sometimes the inner voice gives good advice, but sometimes it gives us the wrong directions too.

I find the wrong direction leads to unexpected trails that are realized after the adventure.

So often we choose our own way only to have to backtrack and listen once again! Well done Astrid!
