I use my voice when talking to others and saying to them, "Hello, how are you?" It is amazing what the voice, itself, can tell people. Many times, one can know how I am feeling that day by listening to the tone and speed of my voice. I use my voice to express myself verbally and share my opinions and thoughts with others.
I don't know if I ever heard total silent. There is always sound in the air whether it is the ruffling of the leaves, a gust of a passing wind, the buzzing sound a computer makes, or even the sound of one's breath as they inhale and exhale. Silence is useful when thinking, when emphasizing a point with a pause, and especially when listening to what others have to say. However, silence can be harmful when burying a problem or conflict with another and locking it inside until one explodes. Like many things, silence can be both a good and bad thing.

Carrie,
I was particularly interested in your comment that "one can know how I am feeling that day by listening to the tone and speed of my voice." I would say this is true of myself as well. And funny thing is, in certain situations, or when feeling certain ways the voice can be hard for me to control. How about you?
