"These are the voices which we hear in solitude, but they grow faint and inaudible as we enter into the world." This quote is from Ralph Waldo Emerson's "Self-Reliance". This quote sounds unique in an odd, but good way. Many would read it and just ignore it. Others would read it, think about it for a second, and then forget about it because they don't understand it. When a person really thinks about this quote, they begin to understand how meaningful it really is. It talks about an individual's concience (some call it their "gut feeling"). An inner voice that helps guide us through Life. Some people would tell you that this is nuts to even think this, but think about it. We think about things to ourselves all the time. Sometimes we sit back and say "Man! I knew that I should not have done that!" Why do you say this? Why do you blurt something like this out? Because your concience told you not to. You knew better because your concience told you not to. It's true isn't it? When we get amongst our peers, there are times were we commit acts that we would never think of doing, but because it's considered "cool" and we're in a group, we do the wrong things. I'm not trying to preach, and I'm certainly not perfect (although I try to be), but what I am saying is that people need to listen to their feelings more often. Do what you believe is right. When you really think about it, wouldn't this make life much easier...?
