Pregnancy Voice Impact

More From Melinda Gates

But what i would like to say is that the spiritual life is a life in which you gradually learn to listen to a voice that says something else, that says, "you are the beloved and on you my favour rests."... i want you to hear that voice. it is not a very loud voice because it is an intimate voice. it comes from a very deep place. it is soft and gentle. i want you to gradually hear that voice. we both have to hear that voice and to claim for ourselves that that voice speaks the truth, our truth. it tells us who we are.

I was worth about over a million dollars when i was 23 and over ten million dollars when i was 24, and over a hundred million dollars when i was 25 and... it wasn't that important — because i never did it for the money.
