"Actions Speak Louder Than Words." Emma thought that quote was complete bullshit. She thought you had to verbally speak in order to get a point across. However, she couldn't speak. She was mute. She was diagnosed with Aphonia at birth. She thought no one understood her. Her life just falling apart yet unfolding at the same time as another second passes in her life. Do you really need to verbally speak in order to have your own voice? Do you absolutely need it in order to define yourself? When others catch her when she falls she appreciates it, but always knows they don't understand what she's going through. She thinks she'll never get her voice, and she really misses a voice. But how can you miss something you never had to begin with? UPDATES: MONDAYS, WEDNESDAYS, FRIDAYS AT 9:00 EST (Eastern Standard Time).
