(#5929) Our voices are like a ripple on a quiet body of water

      We may not think we are smart enough to offer advice but I say when you know something is wrong, even just saying that something is wrong is enough to make known that there is a problem that needs addressed. For instance, I don't have to have a doctorate in financing to know that if the few wealthy are making most all the profits then workers are being left to be disgruntled. I can say that with the confidence that I know I am correct just by living in this society where there are too many without and to few with most all. My voice is my way of saying how I feel about this society we exist in. None of us should be shy about saying what we see as evidence of a great injustice right before our eyes.
     Besides voicing our convictions being our way of stating what should be obvious to all, our voice is a way to shock or make aware to others what we see and feel. Like the ripple on a body of still water, the effect of our voice stirs the rest of us through the vibrational sensation. We hear some simply logical questioning and it makes us think it through in our own experiences. One voice easily can shake the foundation of a whole society and even the world at large. So at most times we may feel insignificant we are not when it comes to our clarity on a problem. Our voice adds power to others to use their voice when they otherwise may have felt the lonely fear of not making waves by themselves.
     Some of us are less shy about stating the obvious and others are more shy about doing the same. But when it comes to what is wrong right before our eyes none of us should be shy about calling it what it is. Regardless of race or gender the only way to live in a society is for all of us to have a voice. Whether speaking or voting, the universality of those communications keep us well within the facts and truths of reality and help us maintain a sanity in the world that is deserved by all. When our voices crescendo together we are truly magnificent as a species and the outcome is not to be denied.
