There are many forces and influences out there seeking our attention, vying for our passions. Some should be accepted and followed with full-fledged allegiance. Others should be avoided like a plague.

Follow your heart. Follow those things that will life and build you, make you a better person for having had the experience.

There is a song, deep in our souls, aching to be sung. Listen to the melody of destiny playing deep in your heart. Listen to the harmony of success as it drowns out the discords of challenges and fears. Listen to the arias of desire, sweet and pure and clear, as they give you comfort and direction.

Trust in the song of your heart. It was written for you. It is a symphony of life with many movements. Some are light and airy. Some are purposeful and powerful. Others are deep and moving.

Our life is truly a stage, with many actors and actresses making their entrances and exits. But the symphony of life which we hear and experience is only our own.

Our talents and abilities are developed and enhanced as we act upon our impressions, as we listen to our own song and play out our own parts.

We should always seek for the line of melody as we act in our lives. We are the main player, the number one chair in our orchestra as we play out our symphony. To be content to play second or third chair is to ignore our music and be swallowed up in the discords of mortality.

We must play our songs with full purpose of heart. We must play them with full crescendo and pianissimo as the music directs.

We must play with feeling and passion.

We must play what we know deep in our heart is written.

We must play.and we must listen.
