You may think you are lost in the crowd but your words make you stand out and be you!

Troubled by indecision, wanting to speak to someone, anyone who may
offer a kind guidance.  She tries to show instead of tell. Hoping 
someone will pick up on her sense of urgency to speak. There is 
something wrong. Definitely wrong. She opens the door to join the crowd 
but blends in instead of standing out.  Her words make no sense at all. 
One syllable after another emerge from her lips only to fall to the 
ground by an uncaring world.  Something else more important happens and 
what she has to say is not important, pushed aside, like dirt.  The 
words tear at her soul, wanting to be heard, be spoken, be recognized. 

She walks to the top of the stairs facing the crowd and lets out a
scream. The crowd of faces look up to her, unknowing, uncaring,     
full of themselves, just staring. 

"What's wrong with that girl?" 

"I have something to say!", she declares loudly. 

"So what.", says the crowd. 

"Maybe we don't want to hear." 

"Maybe I'll say it anyway!" 

She speaks to the crowd who speak over her and don't listen but her
words are out of her heart even left to fall to deaf ears. Her words, 
her heart, her soul. If no one can hear you speak, just remember your 
voice is unique and beautiful! 

So keep talking no matter what. 

You are important too.
