When I was a child, I didn't understand why I was so full of energy and so darn tall. My mouth always seemed to be going and sometimes got me into trouble. At the time, I had no direction in my home helping me to turn down my volume, or to teach me ways to communicate without offending people. I was born to speak, write and communicate. These are my natural gifts. Had I had role models to show me how to effectively com- municate with a better filter I may have had an easier time navigating childhood and some of my young adulthood, but the fact remains that I am here and I am using my asset to my advantage. When I was a young child, I Some people think that having an opinion, a voice, or a verbalized preference on how things should be done is annoying. They believe that outgoing people are overbearing and make a lot of mistakes; they do. Outgoing people are often times in leadership roles and have a nature about them that can rock boats, tip apple carts, and make waves. Loud people can be in the forefront try- ing new things, posting their lives on Facebook or running for office. Their seemingly transparent lives open themselves up for scrutiny and criticism. I would offer to you that the quiet ones, the ones who stick to themselves, the ones that offer little in the way of input or opinion are equally annoying. Quiet people rock just as many boats with inaction. Not doing anything is doing something. It can be a passive aggressive way to check out and not risk anything in life. Just because the mistakes of the quiet are not as noticed as the mistakes of the loud, they are equally made. Additional- ly, sometimes the quiet never know the thrill of trying the near-impossi- ble and seeing it happen because the fear of their loudness stops them. Faydra Rector You Matter If you are loud by nature, if you have the gift and the ease of com- munication; do not fear public scrutiny. Be your- self and share your thoughts and feelings. The world needs you. If you are quiet by nature, if you have the gift of holding your tongue and don't need to be heard; do not fear public scruti- ny. Be yourself and share your thoughts and feel- ings. The world needs you. Faydra Rector, MA is a mental health administrator, author, public speaker, educator and life coach who lives in Red Bluff.
