Pitiful is the person who is afraid of taking risks.
Perhaps this person will never

she will hear her heart, saying,

that God planted in your days?
What have you done with the talents
God bestowed on you?"
- Paulo Coelho

You are perfect. You are complete.
Your inner voice always knows what to do,
but it is a quiet voice.

your inner compass - when you turn down the volume
of your fears, your regrets, your resentments,
and the fear-based advice
your neighbors are so willing to give you.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

If you listen, you will hear the music.

Listen to the melody within your soul.
