You know that feeling when you find something - whether it be an article, a line in a movie, a piece of music, or maybe a sentence in a book - that is exactly what you were looking for? It expresses your thoughts, feelings so perfectly that no other way could describe it better?
I had a moment like that this morning when I read this poem written by Shel Silverstein.
The Voice
There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,
"I feel that this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong."
No teacher, preacher, parent, friend
Or wise man can decide
What's right for you -- just listen to
the voice that speaks inside
This may come as a surprise to some, but I have decided not to serve with the Peace Corps. There are many reasons why, but this little voice is the main one.
Because this is what's right for me. :)
