Voice
Voice [n] is the sound we produce in our larynx. What’s that? No, I didn’t say Lorax. I said larynx.
This is a larynx.
And this is a Lorax.
There’s a huge difference between the two. Are we clear now? Good, shall I continue? Thank you! Voice, as I was saying is the sound we produce in our larynx and transmitted from our mouth as speech or song.
In memory of an icon – Dick Clark, let’s walk down memory lane and listen to some great voices featured on the iconic TV show, American Bandstand.
Voice [v] means to express oneself in words. Our first amendment rights offer us protection to speak or write to an audience on passionate matters dear to each of us. I am thankful, we can still…
or, voice our allegiance….
or, voice our opinion about the government…
or, voice our personal education styles for our children.
or, voice about whatever we please here …
1. How do you feel about exercising your first amendment right?
2. When was the last time your voice was heard on a passionate topic?

Cathy, this was a wonderful post!
My kids wish my voice would be heard much less often, I’m certain.
I liked the little homage to Dick Clark, too.
Gosh, the times really are a’changing.
Thanks for a great link for the letter “V”.

The wonderful thing about freedom of speech is that we do not have to fear reprisal for expressing our point of view, but I do think the right of free speech also comes with duty and responsibility, such as the ones neglected by Ted Nugent in his rant. There, you have it, I expressed my view.

excellent post for V! Voices are so much a part of who we are.

Great post Cathy!
Although I was very shy as a child I finally found my voice and have become quite outspoken.
The last time someone asked me about our TNR program for feral cats.
Thanks for the walk down memory lane with the American Bandstand video. Dick Clark was a very important part of my childhood.

I love your post Cathy! Perfect!
1. I feel that little by little the people are giving up their first amendment right.
Me. I have no problem, with expressing my right…though sometimes I hesitate.
2. I think it was just today actually 🙂
Happy Thursday!

Nice Voice “N” and “V” post, Cathy.
1. I too believe it is a God given right to voice our opinion.
The First Amendment also gives us freedom OF religion and the separation of state and church.
2. Probably too numerous that I’m obnoxious. Nuff said.
Happy Thursday Two Question Day, Cathy!

Wonderful!
As for your question, my voice is often heard…I am pretty outspoken!
I guess the last time I really spoke out about something was on my blog, last week.

As I am a real chatterbox according to my friends I can’t tell when my voice was heard on a passionate topic, I can be quiet convincing, lol !
