Whisper

WHISPER = to speak very softly; speech without vibration of the vocal cords

QUESTION: Is something whispering to you right now?

STORY: Every morning, today and for the last, gosh, maybe twenty years, I sit quietly for one minute and focus on the Highest Truth. Then, I listen for a “WHISPER” from my Inner Self. It may be an idea or remarkable insight or it could be a feeling of tension in my body. It’s just good to relax, center myself and listen to my Heart before I pick up the computer and get blasted with the Internet, emails, etc. This is my “whisper time”! It may last only 5 minutes or it may last 30 minutes. Sometimes I hold a pen or pencil and draw a line not knowing where it will end up - like this drawing. I play with a pencil and allow a visual image to emerge from unknown squiggles that go up and down, left and right and then, suddenly I see a nose or a forehead or a chin. I develop it until the image whispers something to me. Play with this yourself and I’ll bet that you’ll hear a “WHISPER” from your Heart - your Inner Self!
