Words of My Soul

There is a reason that I live through quotes from other people, that I strive to absorb their meaning and yearn to feel as they feel, think as they think and still maintain my own individuality, my own way of looking at life. They are words spoken by others that sing a song to my soul. Some are funny, some are deep, some are just good advice. But each and every one of them resonate with a note deep inside my heart and give an outsider just a little bit of insight as to who I am. If I let you in or share the words, do not feel as if I am pushing them upon you.  Take from them what you will, but don't discard them. For words, whatever their meaning, have a power that satisfies a thirst we may not have even been aware that we possessed. Drink them up, quench the thirst, and be fulfilled.
