The difference between a smart man and a wise man is that a smart man knows what to say, a wise man knows whether or not to say it.
~Frank M. Garafola
Each of us has a voice inside waiting to be heard. We are full of life experiences, opinions, insights and knowledge yet most of the time we judge ourselves, put down what we know and belittle our opinions. Well enough! You have a voice and it's time you start acknowledging that you have something worth saying. Don't let your voice get stifled, cut-off, muffled or stomped on by somebody else's louder opinion. Remember, it's not about being the loudest, it's about having something of substance to say, trusting in yourself and following through by saying it allowed and not just in your head. This is your life, no one can tell you what it's like to be you so don't let them. Don't allow someone else to speak for you anymore. This life is about one person - you!
Now this Pearl comes with caution. Finding your voice does not mean trampling on someone else's voice either. You can find your strong voice and still be serene. You can find your strong voice and not cut people down. You can find your strong voice and not spread rumors or gossip about people. Understand that finding your true voice comes from the purest place in your soul and needs to always reflect the light that's inside your spirit. So go on, find you voice and change your life (and the world) for the better.
