When do you speak up?
When someone is getting bullied, will you just walk away and hope someone will say something? When there is an on-going problem, do you just wait for it to fix itself? When there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity passing by, will you just quietly let it pass?
Many believe that they have no voice or afraid to let out their voice out.
But the thing is: they shouldn't. Our words mean something, they have power. They have the potential to change people, give opportunities, make friends, help people, hurt people. They have the potential to influence millions of listeners, impacting their minds, the way they think, the way they live. And yes. Speaking is a choice but speaking is also a freedom. Having no voice is the same as being confined in a cell. Don't let anyone take it away from you.
All in all, more people need to speak up. Many individual don't realize how many opportunities they miss out by not saying anything. When you have something to say, say it. We all have the right to speak our minds, whether how much absurd or silly it is.
Just be careful on how you use your power. They're stronger than you think.
