I remember a story about a Swiss shepherd boy who is kidnapped by a roving band of gypsies. All he remembers is the sound of the church bells as he is wisked away. His whole life is a search for that sound that rings true.

Quite often he follows the ring that he hears only to find that it is a false sound. As he fine tunes his listening, he is better able to discern whether the sound he hears is a true sound. After he knows when he first hears it whether it’s worth pursuing.

And then one day, he hears the sound that he follows. As he continues on his journey, he knows that the sound rings true and he finds his way home.

You too can can find the truth that sets you free. Be honest with yourself. Know what your truth is. Know what your purpose is. Make sure that the sound rings true.
