MY JOURNEY
AS AN AUTHOR
This is when I started to get back into writing in my journal. I also went to the library to find books that would help me find the connection I was seeking. With every page I read, and every page I wrote I realized what I was seeking from the outside world could only be found within me. Along with this I began to meditate.
With each new book I read came new questions; as I continued to read these questions went unanswered. I begin to ask these questions in my meditations, thinking that surely, I would stumble upon the answers If I asked in my meditation.

One morning as I was writing in my journal, I paused to see if I could hear an answer to the question I had just written, when I heard a voice answering my question. At first, I thought it was just my mind speaking, then I noticed something I hadn’t experienced before, a flood of love that affected me deeply. The more questions I wrote, the more loving answers I received, and the stronger I felt the feeling of this love.
It took me a few months of listening and writing to learn to trust this voice, which I now call my Inner Voice. The one thing that always stood out was the tremendous love I felt every time I wrote and listened for the loving voice.
Imagine writing a verbal conversation as it is happening, this is the way it happens for me. When I ask a question, I receive an answer, if I make a comment, I receive a response. If at first, I don’t understand the answer a thorough explanation is given so I have a full understanding of the answer.
Where does this voice come from? I do not know, but I know it only speaks words of love, kindness and compassion. This voice never advises a thought, word or action that would cause harm to myself, or another being on the planet.

One morning while writing in my journal my Inner Voice advised me that we would write a book together. This surprised me, as I had never thought of writing a book. In school, English was a subject to get through so I could get to wood shop. I was reassured that if I could write our conversations as easily as I do every day, then writing a book would flow smoothly.
My journey to find a deeper connection led me to write the book I was looking for when I began my quest for more connection. I started writing my first book in the January of 2017. The title of it is, Your Inner Guidance, The Path to Discovering Your True Happiness. When I finished, I started writing my second book titled, A Complete Life, Discovering Your Authentic Self. I am currently working on my another book.
My conversations and writing continue to this day. I share many of them on my blog, weekly email newsletter, and articles I write for online and print magazines. I do so because what I have learned through my conversations with my Inner Voice has changed my life for the better. I have heard from readers that these articles help them along their journey as well.
Have I reached a place of more connection? Definitely. I feel a tremendous amount of love for myself and those in my life. I have shifted my focus away from finding true happiness in the physical world to one of finding happiness within myself. Is it possible for you to find your connection, with your inner happiness? Absolutely!
