There is a voice inside of you<br /> That whispers all day long,<br /> "I feel this is right for me,<br /> I know that this is wrong."<br /> No teacher, preacher, parent, friend<br /> Or wise man can decide<br /> What's right for you--just listen to<br /> The voice that speaks inside.”<br /> ― Shel Silverstein

&ldquo;When it&#039;s over, I want to say: all my life<br /> I was a bride married to amazement.<br /> I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. <br /> <br /> When it is over, I don&#039;t want to wonder<br /> if I have made of my life something particular, and real.<br /> I don&#039;t want to find myself sighing and frightened,<br /> or full of argument. <br /> <br /> I don&#039;t want to end up simply having visited this world.&rdquo;
