SELFIE CHALLENGE Week #1: When I stood dumb
Theme of the week: WEIRD SELFIE
Let me first confess here that I ain’t into the habit of using camera a lot. Selfies are very rare. Probably I haven’t taken more selfies than the total numbers of fingers in my hands in my whole life. But @thatindianlady probably wants to encourage people like me to take more and more selfies 😊. Since the contest rules don’t compulsorily require a recent selfie; for this week’s entry I’ve picked up a photo I took a couple of years back. I’ll try to take more selfies now in the coming weeks. Let’s see how it works 😊. So here is my weirdest photo:
Story Behind This Photo
(Not part of this contest)
This was the first anniversary of the day when the celebrity Australian animal rights activist Mr. James Aspey took the vow for a year long silence and went voiceless for 365 days. So I too chose to go voiceless for 24 hours on this day. I was on my way to organize an outreach event to create some awareness about the plight of voiceless creatures of our planet. I got an adhesive tape and decided to stick them on my mouth to signify that I’m voiceless for the day. But I didn’t had any mirror at that time so I vaguely fixed it there and then clicked this selfie to see if it was positioned correctly 😉.
Enroute to my destination, I briefly stopped over a friend’s place and he decided to put the tape again and took these pictures for me to look:

Great initiative @xyzashu
Loved your way to stop animal cruelty
Hey @vikasjaat, your appreciations and positive words are always encouraging.
Thanks a lot!
Nice. There's a proverb that says even a fool can be mistaken for wise when he refrains from speaking. Or something like that lol Nice post. I commend you on your efforts and standing up for animal rights . :)
WOW @dreamingirwin, what a proverb you have quoted here! Yeah, sometimes it feels good when I'm mistaken as wise 😜. But I can tell you from my experience that being silent for sufficiently long duration do make one wiser in real terms. So there is some truth in the old proverb, “Silence is golden, speech is silver”.
Thank you for your compliments! Thanks for the @binkley upvote and the resteem too! 😊
