That voice isn't you. That voice is a part of you. Detach from its utterances and see it as what it is, illusionary and destructive. It does not control you, it does not define you. Take back your power and make it work for you. Force it is listen and quiet. Meditate when it screams, make it focus on nothing but the sensation in your feet or fingers. Do not let it wonder. Force it in submission every time it speaks. Watch it as it squirms as you take the power from it. Watch where it takes you but do not attach, this is not you. You are the one watching. It will try in every moment to use the energy as it has for so long and it will succeed sometimes but with practice it becomes weakened, in those moments of silence you will not be wanting for anything. Peace of mind is peace of life. A long path yes, but those moments become the refuge from the storm; with one day, them becoming the foundation of our temple. You are stronger and more beautiful than that voice will ever tell you, stop listening and be yourself as you are, nothing else is reality.
