the voice

Can you look without the voice in your head commenting, drawing conclusions, comparing, or trying to figure something out?

- Eckhart Tolle 

This is one of the most important spiritual lessons I'm learning so far.  For the longest time I was convinced the little voice in my head "was me." Not only "was the voice me," I considered my little voice to be one of the wisest and most intelligent voices around. I gave it a lot of weight in my second to second decision making. I'm realizing more and more that little voice, while it has a role, is definitely not the main actor in who I am.
