A voice can carry weight and influence like no other. The voice carries us forward. The voice uplifts us. The voice seduces into insanity.

“I Have a Dream” spoke of peace and non-violence and its message stays with us because of the voice. During World War II, Churchills great rumble sustained Britain through endless bombing raids. The sound of his sergeant’s voice carried a frightened soldier into battle.

A great voice can tell you to “go to hell” and you will enjoy the trip.

Don’t underestimate the influence a voice can have. It moves us to peace; it leads us to war. It gives us dreams or nightmares.
