My mute mate

My old uni flatmate Lucinda is going mute for a month to raise awareness and funds for animals who do not have a voice of their own. All the funds she raises via GoFundraise and at her work will go to the RSPCA.

I've been following her blog since she started this on June 5th, and the reactions she's been getting are very interesting. A lot of people don't really understand what she is trying to accomplish, and I can only imagine how difficult that has been for her.

Not only that, but I can only imagine how difficult she is finding it to remain silent, considering that Lu is one of the more talkative and social people I know! She is also discovering that she has a tendency to use exclamation marks more than necessary :P

Please consider looking into her journey of mutedness at Lucinda's Blog - The Sound of Silence. I for one could not do what she is doing, and think that she is doing a great job.
