The World Needs Your Voice

A while back I was moved while listening to a song a friend wrote and recorded.

In that instant these words started flowing out.

I was in awe of the pure passion and beauty of a soul’s expression and how beautiful it would be if we all followed that pull within.

I think there are too many swallowed voices. People holding back the things they want to say, be or do.

But I truly believe we are all here to fully express who we are. To honor our passions and our truth.

We’ve all been given a unique voice. Think about that. What a beautiful thing!

I must admit. I have swallowed my voice.

Many times.

I’ve been hushed.

I’ve held back afraid.

I’ve wanted to perfect it.

Get it right.

Make sure it’s ok and worthy.

But truth is, wherever we are, whatever that voice wants to express in this moment, is enough.

So I’ll share and no longer swallow my voice, with the sincere hope it will inspire others to do the same.

Express like a kid, not for perfection or acceptance, but merely for expression and connection.
