Can someone here at DU help me find
the words Bob Schieffer orated yesterday morning on Face the Nation, with reference to Listening to your inner voice, and it's like a broken key; but when it's right, it clicks?
I know this isn't very much information, but can't remember how he said it. Would appreciate it if
someone has found a link and would share it with me.

Thanks.

3. Thank you so much paparush
It's exactly what I was looking for. My friend wanted it, but doesn't have a computer.

I have some thoughts for this season of reflection that began with Passover and ends with Easter.

Last summer at the Aspen Ideas Festival, I interviewed a minister named T.D. Jakes. He is an African American pastor of a Dallas megachurch of more than 30,000 people. He said something that day I shall never forget.

He reminded us that no one is perfect, that we are all broken somewhere.

But he said that is not all bad. A key is broken in all the right places to fit a certain lock. When that key is placed in that lock, there is a quiet click. When we meet a person who is broken in the right places to accommodate our brokenness, there is a click.

It can happen in other ways: An introverted person hears that click when he finds a job that can only be done by a person who works well alone; or when we face a life-altering decision.

Whether it is a job, or a relationship or even faith, something clicks when we find the place that accommodates our uniqueness, or brokenness.

Some religions teach prayer — some call it meditation — but there is within each of us some mysterious, inner thing that tells us when something clicks — we don't know how or why, we just know.

We are all broken. But listening for that click can help us to unlock many doors. The voice is always there — we have only to listen.

4. I really appreciate you locating that for my friend and me
Wish I were savvy like so many of you here at DU. I looked for it as much as I knew how, to no avail.

Thanks.

5. Thank you
Something I've needed to hear for awhile. I'm presently a key looking for my right lock. I'm copying this for my inspirational files.
