the inner voice, the closest of what god voice could be

I wonder lately why sometimes we do the things that we do ?  I mean , are we only driven by desire, ambition, well beeing, wealth, goodness, fatality, emotions, the persue of happiness, rightness, family precepts ... a mix of them ? 

They are times where I think about more specifically of the "though process" itself. Those voices inside us taking part of the debates, the arguments. I picture them sitting around a table, talking loud while drinking some booze. Among them, the voice of the reason, the lazy one, the greed, the conscience, the pragramatic, the worker, the stoic, the brain etc ... I imagine the scene by times very noisy and trashy. 

And sometimes another voice comes in. A voice in low pitch frequency, that say very few words and disapear as fast at it came : our inner voice. You see, it doesn't try to win an argument, it doesn't try to speak louder than all the others, it doesn't brag. His purpose is only to deliver you a message that he feels you really need.

All the other voices are so loud and so bumped that it makes almost impossible to ear our inner voice most of the time. In addition to that, they are times when, we don't want to ear it and we put it aside . 

The inner voice is not like any other voice, for instance the cleanliness voice will shout at you everyday to get yourself clean and brush your teeth ! almost like a slap in your face. The inner voice will not. When the message is delivered it will not be re-told, it is up to us to follow / act upon or not .

When I think of our inner voice, I tend to imagine that is the closest of what god voice could be. Not saying a single word more than necessary and speaking very low, almost like if the silence itself was talking.

Lately I have tried to listen a bit more of my inner voice. Around all the noises of my life and all the other voices inside, it has been all but easy. However, everytime I do, I've got this warm feeling covering me. Leaving no doubt in my mind that what has been done was the best thing that I could have done.
