“Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with deeper meaning”
–Maya Angelou-
The human voice, in my reckoning, is the most perfect instrument of all. The human voice conveys and expresses the emotions, feelings and the mind of the owner. Indeed, the voice is an expression of the personality of the owner. Your voice is your emblem, your identity. . .
Your identity gives you a sense of stability, purposefulness and direction. If for any reason your voice cannot be heard, then, a severe mental and emotional damage is being done to you. . . You must own your voice and use it as an instrument of asserting and or expressing who you are. God gave you a voice for a good reason.
“And he went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins, as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight.”
Luke 3:3-4 NKJV
“The voice of the LORD is powerful; The voice of the LORD is full of majesty. The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars, Yes, the LORD splinters the cedars of Lebanon. The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire. The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness. . .”
Psalms 29:4-5, 7 NKJV
Individuals who have a voice often receive fair hearing because their views, thoughts, and feelings are readily recognized by others. . They are able to influence outcomes and manipulate contexts with words they speak.Unfortunately, those without a voice are at a serious disadvantage. Oftentimes, they are abused, neglected, misunderstood, maltreated, cheated etc.
Every voice should be respected; male, female, children, young or old. No voice should be silenced or ignored. To do so is to damage the individual mentally and emotionally. If you have difficulty expressing your feelings, thoughts or opinion, you might need help. Talk to someone about your feelings- could be parents, a role model, your spiritual leader or a therapist. . .
