<v Speaker 1>Cher Whinney. Hello, I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to the Whitney

3
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:21.839
<v Speaker 1>Soul Podcast. Today's topic Whitney Never to Walk in any

4
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:28.160
<v Speaker 1>One's Shadow. There is a powerful message contained within Whitney

5
00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Houston's greatest love of all. She speaks to us about

6
00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:39.600
<v Speaker 1>courage and self affirmation, reminding us that we each hold

7
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:45.799
<v Speaker 1>a light within us. When she says I decided long

8
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:51.799
<v Speaker 1>ago never to walk in Anyone's shadow, she calls upon

9
00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:59.520
<v Speaker 1>us to embrace our own identities and pursue our own dreams.

10
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:04.920
<v Speaker 1>It is a clarion call to rise up, to break

11
00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:10.519
<v Speaker 1>free from the expectations of others, and to recognize the

12
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:15.920
<v Speaker 1>gifts that lie within our own hearts. We must not

13
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:20.159
<v Speaker 1>follow the weight of doubt or the fear of failure,

14
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:26.760
<v Speaker 1>to eclipse our journey. If THY fail, if I succeed,

15
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:33.200
<v Speaker 1>at least thy lived, as I believed all my fellow dreamers.

16
00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>This is the spirit of true integrity. It is not

17
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:44.079
<v Speaker 1>merely the outcomes of our efforts that defines us, but

18
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:51.439
<v Speaker 1>the conviction with which we engage in our struggle or greatness.

19
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:55.959
<v Speaker 1>We must learn to cherish the journey to honor our

20
00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:01.400
<v Speaker 1>values and to hold fast to the principle that ignite

21
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:06.719
<v Speaker 1>our passions. So let us walk proudly, not in the

22
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>shadows of others, but in the bright light of our

23
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:15.120
<v Speaker 1>own truth. Let us cultivate the greatest love of all,

24
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.879
<v Speaker 1>the love for ourselves, the love for our dreams, and

25
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 1>the love for our shared humanity. Because when we believe

26
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:30.960
<v Speaker 1>in ourselves, we not only uplift our own spirits, but

27
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:36.319
<v Speaker 1>we inspire others to do the same. Together, we can

28
00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:45.919
<v Speaker 1>create a world where every individual, every individual stands tall, unapologetically.

29
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Let us rise up remembering Whitney Houston and the message

30
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:59.639
<v Speaker 1>she brought to us in our hearts. I'm gall Nobles.

00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:04.199
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for listening to the Whitney Soul Podcast.
