When
we need to know a truth,
we
tend to look outside ourselves for answers,
and
the last place we look is in our own heart.
Meanwhile, all that we could ever need to know
abides at the core of our being.
The greatest
service any therapist, teacher, psychic, astrologer,
or
counsellor can offer you is to remind you of what you already know.
You
have probably sought help or advice
from
several people or resources, and still felt unfulfilled.
Then
someone said something that really resonated within you,
and
you said, "That's it!" How did you know that was it?
Why
did that one piece of advice move you more than the others?
You
already knew, and you were just waiting for someone out there
to
call your attention to the answer that matched your inner knowing.
When something is really right for you, you know it.
And
when something is not right for you, you know it.
Your
job is not to find someone else to dictate your truth,
but
to get in touch with your inner guidance.
Trust your intuitions and gut feelings.
Your
inner being is always speaking to you through the voice of your
heart.
Honor what your heart is telling you, and you befriend
an
impeccable guide that will take you all the way home.
