That Voice Within That Won’t Go Away

“Through pride, we are ever deceiving ourselves. But deep down below the surface of the average conscience, a still, small voice says to us, something is out of tune. ” ― Carl Gustav Jung

How long do you want to lie to yourself?

No matter who you go to for external validation,

Or whatever you choose to tell yourself

The truth is what it is!

You wanna silence it? All the best!

It’ll speak to you once again in your quiet moments.

Yes, we live in times of blurred lines and grey colors;

Things are hardly black or white.

There are complexities and complications,

Permutations, computations, and combinations.

Despite it all, in those silent moments, that inner voice rings loud and true!
