Inner Voice

Sure, the task is difficult,
the road is long,
and the challenges are great.

And yet, somewhere deep inside,
You know you can do it.

Your outer thoughts and words may complain loudly
about the trouble, frustration and annoyance.

Yet your innermost thoughts know
that what is best is to move ahead with it,
despite all the trouble.

Listen to that inner voice,
the one telling you that yes you can.

Listen to that inner voice,
the one reminding you
that yes, you must.

That inner voice can give you valuable perspective,
For it is not distracted or dismayed by the events of the moment.

Certainly it's useful to pay attention to the moment, and
it's also important to keep the big picture in mind.

And when you measure the challenges of this moment
Against the big picture of your life,
you'll know
that you can handle those challenges.

When you view the opportunities of this moment
within the big picture, you'll know
that your efforts will be richly rewarded.

Listen to that inner voice,
the one that's saying yes to life.

Ralph Marston

This week, remember, yes you can.

I found this poem and thought how perfect. With the beginning of a new year, this is a perfect thought to share. It brings new hope for what lies ahead; new hope for adventures; new hope for dreams that have lain dormant through long winter months. There may be struggles, and after all isn't that what living is all about? A friend said to me yesterday 'You don't learn anything unless you struggle a bit". Rather like the old saying "No pain, No gain".

So take a risk, take that chance and dare to do whatever it is that will help you attain your dreams. Live life, live it the way you want it ---- Yes, you can! Take the days one at a time and listen to your inner voices, they will steer you in the right direction.
