Life's Whispers

Life whispers, how they creep up on us.



How we choose to ignore.


Until we are ready to listen.


We drone out the noise with our eager positivity.


But life has a way of getting it's way.


Even if we think there are no whispers around us - they are there.


Listen closely.


What is being sung to you?


Maybe as soft as a lullaby.


Does fear make us hit the stop button?


We hit rewind and act dumbfounded.


"I never saw THIS coming."


We can't control the universe.


We can't control destiny.

We can't control our REAL selves.

Our inner desires. wants. needs.



We could control the way we tune in to the signs and whispers in our life.


If you have static....


Change the channel.


Are we are afraid to change the channel and no longer be able to hear the song we love?


But imagine that song playing crystal clear.


Life whispers to us every second of every day.


Life is too short to act as if we don't hear.


Our heart continuously responds - even when we don't verbalize what we are feeling.


Words have the power to teach us.


We take in the sounds through our ears and our hearts respond.

We read words with our eyes and our hearts respond.


When you have an ache over a sound you have heard -- listen to it.

When you have an ache over a word you read -- internalize it.


Don't be afraid to voice your concern.


Don't be afraid to grab hold of the red flag.


Don't be afraid.


Words.


Are life's whispers.


Vocalized. Internalized.


Know who you are.


Know what you need.


Be truthful. Forthright.


Honest.


Find the clear channel and sing loud.

This is so beautifully written. And it is so beautifully true. Life is way too short to sit back and not listen to those whispers. <3 XOXO
