About this ebook

If we never speak our minds, we will never know what it is to have a voice that is heard. When that voice is silent. Many will never know what true wisdom was lost to them. When one’s mind is fooled into believing they have no voice and shouldn’t be heard. That mind is never going to believe they have a voice that matters. All voices matter, all minds have something to say. When we are taught that we don’t matter, the mind must make a choice. Do we shut down our minds, stifle our thoughts, and never speak out, or do we open our voice and protest what is wrong? When the minds of many are suppressed to believe that they are worthless to the community. Unfit to be a citizen of the community. That their skin is the wrong color, or their mind is to weak and ignorant.
Not all voices have your best interest in their heart. Those that use their voice to tell you, you are not wanted are voices that want to demean you. To make you believe what they say. To keep you a subject under their authority, so that their voice has power over your voice and what you mind should believe. These voices do not want you to think for yourself. These voices want you to have no voice in their community. These voices tell you they are the voice of truth, and yours is the voice of lies. These voices have an agenda to make you the lessor and them the better. These voices want you to be always subjected to poverty so that their wealth is greater than yours. These voices what you underemployed so that they will always be your boss. These voices want you to be uneducated so that their minds will always be superior to yours. Their voice is important to only them and yours have no value to them. This is subjugation of the weak mind, the masses, so that they are seen as your master and control all aspect of your minds and voice. They use their voice to distract you from the truth, that their voices are lies. The voice that is dipped in honey is in reality a mind that is steeped in vinegar and a voice that spews hatred behind closed doors.
Know this your mind is stronger when your voice speaks out and reveal the truths as lies. Your voice is a force that can change the circumstances of your life. Your voice is just as important as the voices that seek to keep you confused and blind to reality. When your voice joins the voices of other’s to affect change, the community of voices can achieve the difficult challenge of their lives. Change the wrong voices from deceiving your mind and taking away your voice. The mind without a voice is a stagnated life. But the voice that has a righteous mind, a compassionate heart and the True light of the truth can make even the hardest cynic, the racist mind, the coldest heart, the corrupted politician and the powerful cringe in fear of that light. Do not hide that light behind your fears. Reveal that light and your voice will be heard and your mind free of the burden you were told you do not matter. All of God’s people are equal in God’s eyes, and no man or women has the right to say you are not equal to them. That your truths are lies, and their lies’ are truths. Do not be distracted by those who want your voice silenced, and your mind hidden from the light. For they seek only to divide you from your rights, your freedom, your equality so they can rule over your mind and bury your voice. If we never speak our minds, we will never know what it is to have a voice that is heard.
