My True Voice

I have always had this deep need to be able to express myself in truth and with the authentic voice that lives inside me.

It always seems that life comes at you hard and you lose your ability to speak with that voice.

I spent some time this weekend with a really good friend of mine in Virgnia Beach and i realised that when your heart is covered by those who love you.. your expression will always come out true.

The other night i had a dream that i was in London taking an overland train and i was very distracted and oblivious and confident that i knew which train to take.. i hopped on and sat down in my rush, put my bags down with a sigh of relief and then relaxed. As the train started moving i fell asleep for what felt like a short while and at the first station i woke up and i was in France!! I hit a panic, jumped off the train and in the midst of the busy crazy station decided to pick another one hoping that it would take me back on track.. But alas.. all the route maps were down and i kept on picking the wrong train and ending up further away from where i needed to be..

So this had me thinking... that sometimes in life when you go on a journey you really need to pay attention - be focussed no matter how matter of fact the circumstances maybe - because life as i have come to know it on my 31 years on this earth can be very unpredictable and if you live your days uncircumspectly.. you might just be thrown a major curve ball...

But having said that.. there are always ways and other trains that will take you back on course somehow.. and to me alot of the train directions are my very good friends whom i value and appreciate every day of my life. And the family who sustain me and who are so deeply rooted in me.

So... dont miss your train.. you could be derailed for a while! :-)
