FINDING: ''Your Own Voice''




THREE OF ME...
''Telling Yourself TRUTH''
---Becomes Habit, HONEST---

---One finds his own voice by telling the truth to himself. It is that simple. What if you don't know the truth, what does one do then?
---One tells himself the truth about how he feels. He tells himself how he feels about things. But to find his own voice, it must be the ''truth.'' You can't fool your true feelings. This is how one finds his own voice. Until then, even without knowing it, you are telling us someone else's opinion. It is someone else's truth. It belongs to someone else. You have yet to make it your own. You can ''feel'' like someone else, but until you ''embody'' it, it is not yet yours. It is not yet true for you.
---A point of confusion can be that there are personal, relative truths and Truths we share. A personal truth could be, ''I like to eat vegetables with my fish.'' It is more in the preference category. A Truth we share could be, ''It is about Love and Forgiveness.'' Get to know the difference. One's own voice has conviction and you don't hear the doubt. It does happen that the more one tells the truth to oneself, that it does become more and more habit-forming.
.
---Know Yourself---
---A Word of Caution: Get to know ''Yourself'' and how you feel about things, FIRST. ''Don't'' start by telling everyone ''how you feel about everything.'' You will probably hurt a lot of feelings and you will just be ''shooting your mouth off.'' Communicate Honest things about You and NOT Them. If the fact is that you want to ''BLAME'' someone for your situaion, it is really Your fault and not theirs, anyway. This will be clearer, eventually.
---This is what I have noticed. If you are saying things that are true and
true for you and how you feel, it does not matter where they came from, as long as they are true for you. One's voice actually improves and has more conviction. As the song goes, ''The Nearer your Destination, the More you Slip Slide Away.'' Each time you get closer and closer to the truth. Eventually, you begin ''Speaking the Truth'' and It pulls you along with It. You have then found ''Your Own Voice''- and that is the goal. Be Well.

''You Find Your Own Voice By Telling Yourself How You Feel About Things.''
