That Inner Voice - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

You are reading from the book Today's Gift.

Let your conscience be your guide.
--Jiminy Cricket

Crickets sing on summer nights because it's their nature to do so. They don't think about whistling or trumpeting or sleeping or changing the world. They've figured out their role on earth, and they do it.

We are a bit more complex than crickets, and most of the time that's lucky. In most of our affairs it's our conscience more than sheer instinct that helps us choose those thoughts and acts and feelings that are right for us.

Each of us has that little voice inside, relentless as a chirping cricket, telling us what to do. Even in the middle of our toughest decisions, we always have within us the solution that is right for us. All we have to do is listen--and trust.

What does my inner voice say about today's decisions?

My inner voice never steers me wrong. My part is to just listen and pay attention to what it is telling me. It knows before my mind does, what is right for me.

Hugs
Ann
