I may be quiet but. . .

I'm not exactly shy, but I don't like to talk a lot. Most of the time, I just like to sit and think about random things. People always ask me if I'm OK or if I'm mad when I am quiet and really, I am just thinking. 

Don't get me wrong, I have a voice, I just use my voice differently than most. For starters, I like to talk with my hands :P Sign language is part of my weird comfort zone. I try to make the way I dress a statement. Clothes don't define me, but they are an outward statement of who I am inside. No, I don't have fringe jackets and gold headbands inside of me, but my clothes help give me my voice. I don't want to have my voice lost in the crowd, I want to be different. People need to stop trying to hear me, they need to listen with their eyes, see me for who I am.

If you're not going to speak up, how is the world supposed to know you exist? So make some noise :) Whether it is your clothes that make you louder or hands that can talk for you, find your voice.

I may be quiet but I do have a voice :)
