This piece was inspired by an interview with Oprah Winfrey which she quoted: “I have felt the presence of God my whole life. Even when Ididn’t have a name for it, I could feel the voice bigger than myselfspeaking to me, and all of us have that same voice. Be still and know it. You can acknowledge it or not. You can worship it or not. You can praiseit, you can ignore it or you can know it. Know it. It’s always there speaking to you and waiting for you to hear it in every move, in every decision.” -Oprah Winfrey, May 25, 2011 -Carlos Simon Jr
