There are two “voices”that you hear, one is loud , demanding , judging, wanting, not wanting, that is ego . The other unlike your ego is not loud , demanding , urgent, but quiet ,more like a gentle nudge. It suggests rather than demands , it is easy to ignore or over rule.
That quiet voice is your true friend it will never do or lead you into harm.

John: Your counselor sounded wise! You should be allowed to be your own person and hopefully, it’s you that allows yourself to be.

Thank you for passing on the thought of Ruby Payne – I like that – that we have spiritual assets. Interestingly, spiritual assets cannot be taken from us unless we allow them to be. I may have to expand that thought in a post!

I meditate but not as regularly as I would like. I am meditating more and I am trying to let go of the idea that there is some perfect way to meditate. I don’t alway achieve stillness but for moments I do and meditation helps. My guess is that there is no perfect meditation and we end up discovering what works for us.

A benefit to meditation is that it does still the clamor and allows us to hear that quiet voice.

I heard about the small quiet voice inside of myself while taking a course that included a book on poverty by Ruby Payne. She said that someone may not have money, but they may have other assets, including spiritual ones. Just having someone point out that I have this voice has made a big difference to me. I had never heard it before.
It reminds me of a counselor who told me that I needed someone to give me permission to be my own person and that it didn’t matter who that person was.
I also think that in addition to the small quiet voice and my own voice, there is also just silence.
I mean this in the sense of the mental stillness achieved in meditation, something I have tried, but have not yet made a regular part of my life. From reading a book of Taoist sayings, I have some concept of the benefits that meditation could bring.
