When I prefer to hear and read than to see

I honestly feel that there's nothing wrong with students who wants to be politically involved and get their political thoughts out there, exercise their rights and all but as an educated citizen, you don't convince people with demonstrations and brawn, you use your intelligence and words. Words, lasts longer than any muscle and physical strength you'll have during your lifetime.  

Words - they kill, they screw, they deceive. But they're also an interpretation of our imagination. The thing we use to form communication with one another, and they travel faster than images. We hear about things we don't even see. We know about places, even if we've never seen them. We imagine things that doesn't even exist through someone's wordy descriptions.


Think about it - even if a man's strength were to last through centuries, it would still be through words from one to another and stories written and told. 


People say that 'action speaks louder than words' but trust me, we succumb to words BEFORE we consider to take any action more than the other way round.



 


Teach, inspire, advice and create with beautiful words. It has more impact and will be longer-lasting than your acts which will die off when you become irrelevant or moved on.
