There are choirs singing in your head.
If you listen, you will hear the music.
It is the song of angels.

added up all together
they have no value, make no sense.
Strain to hear the song of angels.
Listen to the melody within your soul.
- Neale Donald Walsch

petty complaints, and idle chatter.
About those, I just don't care.

She will seldom counsel you to do a shabby thing:
for a woman friend always desires to be proud of you.
