Listen

Somewhere deep within you
is a song
that plays softly
always …

A song you can hear
only if you’re very quiet,
and very still …
a song of life,
and dreams, and wisdom.

A call to adventure
on a path
that’s uniquely yours.

Take time to listen
to the song of your soul
and see where it leads you.

This was on a card I received on the day of my college graduation. To me then it was just a graduation card, I put it in the box where I store all my cards, and forgot about it. One day, earlier this year, I got a very strong urge to organize my card box, so I pulled it down, and started going through it.

Some cards brought back fond memories, others reminded me of not so pleasant times, and some did nothing at all. But, this card spoke to me, it spoke to me in ways I cannot describe. The goosebumps told me it was a message I needed to listen to. What was just a card years ago, became a lifeline for me at that moment. This just goes to show that the messages are always out there, we just have to be tuned in to the right frequency to receive them.

I turned the card into the above collage and now it sits on a shelf, where I can see it everyday. Thank you, Loretta, for the card!
