WATCH YOUR MOUTH

 I'VE HEARD THIS PHRASE TOO MANY TIMES! GUESS WHAT IT'S A FREE COUNTRY ANYONE CAN PREACH AND SAY THEIR VIEWS AND OPINIONS OUT LOUD CUZ THERE'S A THING CALLED FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND DEMOCRACY. ALSO PEOPLE DESERVED TO BE HEARD NOT JUST SEEN. YOU GUYS DESERVE TO HAVE A PLATFORM WHERE YOUR VIEWS GET HEARD. SOMETIMES WHEN WE THE YOUNGER GENERATION SPEAK WE GET TOLD WE HAVE TOO MUCH ATTITUDE OR WE ARE DOWNRIGHT DISRESPECTFUL OR WHATEVER WE SAY GETS FLUSHED DOWN THE DRAIN AND THROWN OUT THE WINDOW AND NINE TIMES OUT OF TEN WE GET TOLD TO WATCH OUR MOUTHS. SO YOU HAVE TO BOTTLE UP EVERYTHING AND WRITE IT DOWN IN YOUR PERSONAL JOURNALS RIGHT? ANYWAY I'VE RANTED ON QUITE PASSIONATELY FOR SOME TIME SO I'M GONNA GIVE Y'ALL SOME AWE-INSPIRING ADVICE THAT WAS GIVEN TO ME BY A SPECIAL PERSON IN LIFE SHE WAS MENTIONED IN THE LAST CHAPTER SO GRAB YOUR BLANKETS AND PILLOWS AND GET COMFY ALSO GRAB SOME NOODLES AND LISTEN LOUDAND CRYSTAL CLEAR 'WHEN SOMEONE SAYS YOU'RE THE CAUSE OF FIGHTS AND ARGUMENTS YOU JUST HAVE TO STAY QUIET AND LET THE ELDERS DO THEIR THING' BUT THAT'S A LOAD OF BULLSHIT SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO STAND UP FOR YOURSELF NO MATTER WHAT SELF-ADVOCACY IS THE KEY TO BRINGING BACK YOUR CONFIDENCE THAT'S BEEN THROWN OUT THE WINDOW BECAUSE YOU SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO HAVE A SPACE WHERE YOUR VIEWS, OPINIONS AND FEELINGS ARE VALUSED INSTEAD OF SHUT DOWN. OKAY I KIND OF PARTY POOPED ON MY OWN ADVICE TO YOU GUYS BUT SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO REALISE THAT YOU'VE GOT ATTITUDE IN YOUR VOICE UNTIL YOUR SIBLING STARTS BEING A PRINCIPLE AND POINTS IT OUR 24/7 AND THIS MIGHT DIM THAT MILLION DOLLAR WATT SMILE AND THAT BIG SHINY GOLD POT OF CONFIDENCE YOU THOUGHT YOU HAD. GUESS WHAT YOU STILL GOT IT SO DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING THAT PEOPLE TELL YOU BECAUSE YOUR WORDS COULD CHANGE SOMEONE'S LIFE SOMEDAY. ANYWAY I'M GONNA STOP RANTING AND GIVE YOU GUYS SOME BETTER ADVICE SO GET YOUR SENSATIONS AND DORITOS AT THE READY, FIND SOME BLANKETS AND PILLOWS AND SIT BACK AND RELAX AND LISTEN LOUD AND CRYSTAL CLEAR 'DON'T LET ANYBODY UNDERMINE OR UNDERESTIMATE YOU UNTIL YOU GET YOUR POINT ACROSS. PEOPLE WILL TELL YOU TO SHUT UP OR BE QUIET DON'T LISTEN TO THEM YOU HAVE TO ROAR LIKE A LIONESS UNTIL EVERYBODY HEARS WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY. I HEARD SOMEONE SAY GO BIG OR GO HOME' WHOA NOW THAT IS SOME ADVICE THAT WOULD GIVE ME AN ENCORE FROM YOU GUYS. YOU HAVE TO STAND UP FOR YOURSELVES AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN EVEN IF PEOPLE WILL TRY AND LECTURE YOU ON HOW MUCH YOU TALK. WELL TALKING GETS YOU SOMEWHERE IT ALLOWS YOU TO EXPRESS YOURSELF CUZ IF YOU KEEP ALL THOSE WORDS ON THE INSIDE YOU'LL EXPLODE LIKE A GRENADE AND THAT'S NOT EXACTLY HEALTHY. SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO GET THINGS OFF YOUR CHEST AND PRAY THAT WHAT YOU SAY IN CONFIDENCE STAYS WITH THAT PERSON UNTIL THEIR DYING BREATH. SO DON'T BE AFRAID TO SAY SOMETHING THAT BOTHERS YOU EVEN IF IT'S SOMEONE WHO HAS OCD OR IF SOMEONE SAYS YOU CAN'T CONTROL YOURSELF WHEN YOU EAT CRISPS FOR THE FIRST TIME. DON'T LET IT GET TO YOU. OK I'M GONNA STOP RANTING AND GIVE Y'ALL SOME JAW DROPPING ADVICE SO GET SOME PANCAKES AND SIT BACK AND RELAX ON THOSE SOFAS AND COUCHES AND LISTEN LOUD AND CRYSTAL CLEAR 'YOU GOTTA HAVE A BACKBONE TO ALLOW YOURSELF TO FIGHT BACK AND HAVE YOUR OWN BACK OR SOMEONE ELSE'S WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL TELL YOUR THAT SOME OF YOUR VENTING IS DISRESPECTFUL BUT IT'S NOT IT'S JUST A WAY FOR YOU TO LET OFF SOME STEAM ABOUT THE THINGS THAT MAKE YOU FEEL UPSET OR HOW MANY PEOPLE THINK YOU'RE A CRAP HUMAN BEING. YOU'VE GOT TO ADD A LITTLE FUEL TO THE FIRE AND HIT PEOPLE WITH THE BULLETS OF WORDS UNTIL THEY ECHO THROUGHOUT A ROOM' OK THAT WAS A HUGE AMOUNT OF ADVICE BUT SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO WATCH YOUR TONE AND YOUR MOUTH  BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN IN GROUPS AND PANELS WHERE IT'S OKAY TO GIVE YOUR OPINION AND VIEWS ABOUT CERTAIN TOPICS BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL VALUE IT BUT IN ASIAN HOUSEHOLDS THAT DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE ANYTHING YOU SAY BACKFIRES IMMIDIATELY BECAUSE PEOPLE WHO ARE BIGGER THAN YOU WILL ALWAYS BE RIGHT AND YOU'LL ALWAYS BE WRONG SO IT'S BEST TO KEEP YOUR TRAP SHUT. BUT IN THE REAL WORLD IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY CUZ WORDS CAN CHANGE THINGS AND HAVE AN IMPACT TO MAKE POSITIVE CHANGES FOR EXAMPLE I'VE BEEN ON PLATFORMS AND ON PANELS IN THE BIG MOUTH FORUM AND IT'S BUILT MY CONFIDENCE SO MUCH BUT SOMETIMES PEOPLE CAN WALK ALL OVER YOU AND YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR OPINIONS MIGHT NOT MATTER SO MUCH ANYMORE. THEN YOU FEEL DUMBSTRUCK AND GET TOLD TO GROW UP WHEN YOU TRY TO TELL PEOPLE THINGS SUCH AS IT DOESN'T MATTER OR LET IT GO THEN ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE AND PEOPLE GET VEXED. THAT JUST CHEESES ME OFF BECAUSE I'M A MATURE YOUNG ADULT BUT MY VOICE JUST GETS TRAMPLED ON SO I JUST LISTEN AND OBSERVE WHEN IT COMES TO SOME PEOPLE IN LIFE.  ANYWAY ENOUGH RANTING ON MY PART I'LL GET DOWN TO BUSINESS AND GIVE Y'ALL SOME MORE AMAZING ADVICE THAT YOU CAN TAKE AWAY WITH YOU ON YOUR GREAT ADVENTURES IN LIFE SO SIT BACK AND RELAX AND GRAB YOUR FAVOURITE BISCUITS AND LISTEN LOUD AND CRYSTAL CLEAR 'YOUR VOICE IS SPECIAL SO USE IT TO MAKE CHANGE AND INSPIRE OTHERS IN GOOD OR BAD SITUATIONS THAT YOU EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE TO USE YOUR WORDS CUZ THERE'S ALWAYS GONNA BE A SHOULDER TO CRY ON. THERE'S ALWAYS GONNA BE SOMEONE THAT YOU CAN POUR YOUR HEART AND SOUL OUT TO AND THEY'LL HAVE YOUR BACK AND THEY'LL NEVER SNITCH TO THE PARENTALS. YOUR WORDS SHOULD BE CHERISHED WHETHER THEY'RE IN PUBLIC OR WHETHER YOU SHARE THEM WITH SOMEONE IN CONFIDENCE' OOH THIS IS SOME SOUND ADVICE BUT IT'S TRUE SOMETIMES PEOPLE CAN MANIPULATE YOUR WORDS AND USE THEM AGAINST YOU SO YOU HAVE TO WATCH YOU MOUTH SOMETIMES WHEN IT COMES TO PEOPLE TRUSTING YOU. IT WILL ALLOW PEOPLE TO STOP LABELLING YOU AS THE 'BIG MOUTH' OR SOMEONE WHO TELLS EVERYONE EVERYTHING WELL I'M STILL LEARNING SOMETIMES I'LL SLIP UP BUT IT DOESN'T HURT TO APOLOGISE EVEN IF PEOPLE DON'T ACCEPT IT ALL THE TIME. THESE ARE MY PARTING WORDS TO YOU GUYS ON THIS SUBJECT SO I'M GONNA SIGN OFF NOW.
