voicing


'Bach is the greatest of the human composers,
but in my opinion
Mozart is an angel.
And one thing that makes him angelic is that
he knows exactly when to stop.
He knows when to shut up.
And in doing that he gives you
your
own
song'


What does it mean to
sing your own song?

Find your voice?

leo babauta's (himself a writer, but I believe the ideas he presents here will help anyone in this quest)
take inspires me
and makes me wonder if anyone intending to
live purposefully
might tap into one's inner confidence
by
experimenting boldly,
learning to hear yourself,
finding what feels true, finding clarity,
removing the 'noise',
and using your voice
not just to express yourself for your own sake,
but to help others
and positively affect our broader community and world.


allow yourself to be touched and lifted by the music...
of your life...
