The Weight of Silence & Those Who Took Timmy's Challenge




Timmy and I are over at Love Bytes today "talking" about the inability to speak. Come check it out!

This is an extremely important post and it's important to acknowledge, appreciate, and respect those who took Timmy's Challenge.

The first person to take the Challenge was Anna Lund. Her experiences over the course of twenty-four hours do much to elucidate what we, who cannot speak, go through; and her experiences are heartrending. Thank you for being brave enough to try it, more importantly, endure it. Read Anna's "A Silent Challenge" here.

The second person to take the Challenge was M. LeAnne Phoenix. LeAnne was also bold and brave, yet still found a whole new world. She asks a very important question at the end of her posts. Check it out. Thank you for taking Timmy's Challenges, LeAnne. Read her two part "Day of Silence" here and here.

    2. I don't know when I'll get to Challenge #2, because I almost never get angry. But when/if I do, I promise I shall do the second challenge and rant and rave without voiced words.

    3. If/when you do try Timmy's Challenge #2, Anna, simply remember it's okay to walk away. Rarely, in life, do we have to respond, let alone prove, anything to anyone. <3

  2. I agree with Anna. You and Timmy leave me awestruck sometimes... most of the time if I am truthful. :) As to Challenge #2... I would imagine that mine is coming soon, as my emotions run fairly close to the surface lately. :) I will definitely post it!
