16．Title：Inner voice helps a lot throughout our lives．
When you couldn't open your mouth till the first two years on the earth，inner voice helps you understand things．Inner voice always shows thoughts and ideas in the body．
It justifies （判断） what is right and what is wrong．When we go against inner voice，we usually feel uncomfortable throughout our lives．
Sometimes when we are feeling sad，we seem to need some kind of support in spirit．We usually speak to our closest friend or our dearest family member during times of unhappiness to feel better．After talking to them，we suddenly feel active again，because our inner voice reminds us to get on with things and leave the things of the past in the memory．
Inner voice is always right most of the time，because it knows us better than others and even ourselves．It's good to go by inner voice most of the time．Whenever you are trying to smoke，or whenever you are asked to choose one side in an argument，you are always worried about the result．During these times，your inner voice tells you what to do．If you don't follow your inner voice，you might be unhappy in the future．It's our own choice to either pay no attention to our inner voice or follow it and search for real happiness．
