“From first days in school, we are taught to listen to everything and everyone but ourselves, to take in all our clues about living from the people and powers around us.” Let Your Life Speak Author:Peter Palker

But always they were unreal, a distortion of my true self -- as must be the case when one lives from the outside in, not the inside out. I had simply found a "noble" way to live a life that was not my own, a life spent imitating heroes instead of listening to my heart.” Let Your Life Speak Author:Parker Palmer
