Blog 4/12

"But flexibility is something that requires work if it is to be maintained. Recently my double voice has deserted me for a single one, reflecting the smaller world into which my work has led me... This voice I picked up along the way is longer an exotic garment I put on like college gown whenever I choose- now it is my only voice, whether I want it or not. I regret it; I should have kept both voices alive in my mouth. They were both a part of me. But how the culture warns against it!"

Questions:
1. Do everyone have two voices?
2. Do the "two voices" reflect their personality (two-faced)?
3. Is one voice kind of a "fake voice"?
4. After getting used to using this "fake voice" do we adjust to this and not reveal our true selves?
5. Why can't we always just be ourselves, are not good enough to show our true selves?
6. It seems society has done this to us, we are two different people around co-workers and family. If we were our true selves all the time would it do us favors or bring us down?
