Federico García Lorca
A dear friend sent this quote to me. It is no secret among my friends and acquaintances that I am not a public speaker. I eschew any and all opportunities for that. And, in doing so, I sometimes wonder what I'm missing.
Could I find a new strength, a new talent? Possibly.
More, could I inspire someone to try something that they are afraid of? Again, possibly.
Finally, could I effect a change in another's thinking, perhaps influencing them for good if I gave voice to my thoughts and feelings?
This I know for sure: I gain nothing from my silence, except to protect myself.
