Your heart's voice is your true voice. It is easy to ignore it, for sometimes it says what we'd rather it did not - and it is so hard to risk the things we have. But what life are we living, if we don't live by our hearts? Not a true one. And the person living it is not the true you.Susan Fletcher
About This Quote
It is a common misconception that a person has to listen to their heart in order to express themselves. When a person listens to their heart, they are actually listening to the voice of their ego. Their ego is what says what they want to hear, not what they truly desire. That is why it is so important for a person to listen to their true voice as it is often the voice of truth.
When a person listens to the truth, it will have no choice but to be heard and then others will have no choice but to see that you are speaking from your heart. If you only listen to your ego, it will have no choice but to speak out loud and everyone will hear how much of a fool you really are.
