The Inner Voice ~

“There is something in every one of you that waits and listens for the sound of the genuine in yourself. It is the only true guide you will ever have. And if you cannot hear it, you will all of your life spend your days on the ends of strings that somebody else pulls.” ~Howard Thurman~





I was thinking of writing an article on “inner voice” and as I was looking for a suitable quote, I found this adorable quote by Howard Thurman. What he says is exactly what I intended to write,

Many fail to recognize the most reliable source for advice which is the inner voice. Tagged in different names as divine voice, conscience or the Freudians call it Superego it all serves the same purpose which is PROPOSING THE BEST FOR US!! !

The inner voice has always been there suggesting the best it is just that the inner voice is often neglected, not heard, ignored or worse in some cases killed”

The issue of the inner voice often unnoticed is due to certain reasons such as;

No Trust over the inner voice, as the inner voice is not looked upon as a substantial source of information to be used for decision making. Ironically this is the state of the inner voice compared to the fellow friends who face the same scenario nor the gossipers or false adviser's.


High Level of False Ego, The Inner Voice has a greatest foe! It can never get along with the false ego but sadly the inner voice is so pure and fragile it rarely puts up a fight or even if it did it in the end tends to lose it to the false ego where many seem to make decision based on the propositions made by the false ego rather than the well-wisher inner voice



External influence is a another factor where the inner voice is often ignored whereby listening to a iconic idol nor a prominent figure or a group who tends to indoctrinate their ideas or agendas which never gives a chance for the inner voice to be heard !


Never thought to hear or knew the inner voice, there are some individuals who never knew that they have an inner voice and it can be a substantial reference in decision making, often the tiny inner voice is avoided by this individuals as they name it as a just a hunch or perhaps some crap
Most of the stated obstacles are the reasons for the inner voice goes unnoticed and reference are made based on other resources which tends to lead towards a wrong choice or the far end results such as disappointments, guilt or resentments !


Can you recall back the little inner voice advising or suggesting to you! Name it conscience, hunch or whatever in your terms but don’t you think it said something good? Don’t you ever think that you are going nuts by hearing voices! That voice is meant to advise you! Take your time to give it a ear and see how it makes changes for the good in life by acquiring peace and love orientated decisions!
