Dreams
We all dream, each night as our heads hit the pillow, images and sensations fill our consciousness. Vivid illustrations of past, present and future places dance about as we dream beyond the here and now. We visit far off places, searching for new experiences and forms of expression while trying to understand the world around us. Some dream of themselves and others, some about places, and some of different worlds and better futures for all humankind.

Do You Take the Risk?
Dear Vocal Readers, Oh, decisions, they can't all be easy, can they? We make countless choices each day of our lives. You decide what you want to eat in the morning, or if you even have enough time to eat a breakfast. You pick which way you drive to work, trying to calculate which route will get you there the fastest. No matter what the decision is, a choice is made and we don't always give it much thought. It's not that I hate decisions, it's the hard ones that kill me.

There Is a Voice Crying Out Within You
Take a moment to think slowly about yourself while reading. There is a voice crying out within us. We have ignored this voice countless times without realizing the most important thing that we have that's not physical. We are one of the most amazing creations that exist in the universe, but many people no longer think of themselves as great creations. All of us are born into this world with an integrated potential. Life can be so hard at times that it will make us think that you weren't born with the talents necessary to be successful, but the fact that you are alive, and can read this right now confirms the opposite. You came into this world with something special integrated in you that needs to come out. This is something internal. The only way someone wouldn't have any special attributes is when that person is no longer alive.

Know Thyself
“We live in a society...” where social pressures are increasingly magnified, not by social media itself, but by the way we choose to use it. Technology is making our personal lives increasingly more transparent, thus exposing more and more of our personal little secrets. And as this trend continues to mold our culture, people, especially the younger generations, will be more and more tempted to center their lives around social approval rather than ethics, morality, or any objective standard of right and wrong. This is a fate for the weak minded, and the weak-willed. Those of us who fail take control over our own minds are those of us who will be the most miserable in life. A system is only as strong as the sum of its parts, not the inverse. The parts do not and cannot derive their structural integrity from the overall strength of the system. An individual never derives his strength from that of the group, but rather the strength of the group derives from the individuals which it is composed of. For this reason it is important for each of us to take the time to know ourselves—to know what we want, where we came from, who we are, who we want to be, and how to achieve that.
