Your inner voice always knows what to do,
but it is a quiet voice.

your inner compass - when you turn down the volume
of your fears, your regrets, your resentments,
and the fear-based advice
your neighbors are so willing to give you.

guilts, shames, embarrassments, angers.

Release each fear - your fears about your health,
your family, your job, and every other fear.

HOPE enough to remove all anxious fears concerning the future.
