The Quiet Call Of The Inner Voice

By Evan Sanders


Sometimes, while it is difficult, we have to have incredibly honest conversation with ourselves about what is going on in our life and how we are being.

I know when it is about to occur because I get this wave of energy from the base of my neck down to my back and I feel my mood start to change. I once was frightened of it, the sensation of water about dripping down my back, but in time I've learned how to get used to it.

These moments of honesty are followed by a settling of thought, emotion, and almost a numbness that comes with it all.

There are many things functioning under the surface that we cannot see. We cannot see what is really planned for us. We cannot see how things are going to turn out. These things will surprise us and if we don't ruin that surprise, help us move forward into being the person we could truly be.

There's an amazing balance between moving forward and making the effort, whatever the situation might be and starting to understand what is going on within. I think much of the time when someone is hurt and people recognize it they attempt to tell that person to pick themselves up as fast as possible and forget the past. This information, while trying to be helpful, isn't really realistic - because the same person who gave that advice, in a similar scenario, couldn't possibly take it.

Don't attempt to manipulate or block out your thoughts and emotions. Let them flow through you. Learn from them. Understand them. Feel them. Then, when you have spent enough time with them, move forward. Move forward into who you can be right now. Sometimes it's incredibly tough to handle those thoughts and emotions but you have to be willing to battle through it.

Have a very honest moment with yourself.

Life has an incredibly interesting way of shaping and molding you exactly the way you need to be in order to live the best life you can possibly live. It's not always going to be easy and there are going to be plenty of times where you will be challenged like crazy, but accept these challenges willingly. They will teach you a whole lot.

When those moments are over, that's when you can move forward. But make sure you don't attempt to change everything while you are in it. Something is trying to talk to you. Open yourself to emotions and let them talk reason into your heart.
