The voice of wisdom is often a lot softer and quieter than all the other voices.

It’s a common experience we have when someone tries to push their version of the truth on us that we often instinctively feel repelled.

Perhaps this is partly because something in us senses that truth is more present when unspoken.
Rather than being thrown around in opinions or agendas, truth is a thousand times more powerful when quietly role-modelled and embodied without identity or attachment.

In this way too, it is similar on the inner level… Learn to listen for the quieter, kinder voices inside. They don’t usually shout at you for their attention, but they can often offer far better advice.
