we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.

and allow communion with the One.

with a term like "Holy Spirit," or "God,"

more than our own, and I believe that sort of trust is excessive.

but I don't blindly follow his suggestions
without checking other sources also.
He was trained to prescribe a pill for everything,
and does it with the best of intentions,
but I often choose to trust God's quiet voice inside me
rather than my doctor's medical advice.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
