Taking Full Credit For Me

my inner voice gets louder when she thinks I am not listening to my heart. She shouted today, loudly, startling me, so I decided to fool her. I sat right down and faced her, my shadow, and my muse, determined to concentrate on what they wanted me to know. I heard them rapidly discussing this, in whispery ways. They are not used to being listened to this hard. They stuttered and stammered, at a loss for words I waited, willing to hear whoever wanted to take the helm. It took these three awhile to get their composure I was excited to feel that I was retaining my power one tiny idea at a time; taking full credit for me.

Take back that "full credit" for yourself. You are worth it, Caren!
