when I listen

writing prompt

When I listen I hear the sound of my own inner knowing guiding me on my journey.
It encourages me to keep stepping forward.
Take a leap into the great unknown and find myself along the way.

When I listen I hear the cheers and support of those around me.
They hold my hand and walk beside me
Lift me up when I am struggling and remind me that I am never alone
They are my steady shore when the waves are crashing.

When I listen I hear all the things that I am discovering.
That love prevails
Kindness is essential
It’s important to listen, but also to open up and share.

When I listen I find my way
My way back to myself
Where I can begin again and again
Because I’m strong, brave & fierce.
And my own inner knowing will guide me to where I’m meant to travel

When I listen I’m open to the unknown path in front of me
