Voices

What a beautiful day I have today. The temperatures are nice and the sun is out and shining beautifully. When I awoke this morning at 6:00am, the sun was out and I could hear the birds singing. Now that is my way of waking up. Today I thought I would like to blog about our voice. I have been thinking about my voice lately. The tone I use, who I have been talking to, what I have been talking about, and of course when to speak and when not to. This last part is the one that has been throwing me lately. When I was younger, my mother told me that, I should be a lawyer as I had the mouth for it. I was very opinionated as a child and loved the chance to debate. I truly thought that I was right and loved the opportunity to show the other person the light, so to speak. I somehow had great confidence in my knowledge and abilities. Somehow over the years, I have lost a lot of the confidence and in turn seemed to have lost a lot of my voice also. It is interesting how they seem to go hand in hand. Now to have an opinion takes a lot of energy and time and to actually be willing to discuss it at length seems exhausting, so often I don't bother. I seem to let things go, or not see them through as I would have in the past. I think that there must be a middle ground in this problem. I am working to find it, not to far either way. Voices can be interesting, educating and even beautiful. I am looking for mind.
