Blog: Signs

Everyone has something to say and different ways to say it. Sometimes it's something inspirational or kind and true but sometimes its the exact opposite.

Everyone has something to say and different ways to say it. Sometimes it's something inspirational or kind and true but sometimes its the exact opposite. Sure, when you think of signs you probably think about stop signs, or the one that says ‘No U turns’ near the intersection, sure they don’t mean much, but they still have important messages. But I’m talking about a different kind of sign. We all have different ways of expressing ourselves, we just do it differently so sometimes its hard to recognize. For an example, I have a journal where I put down all my personal thoughts, (I also have this blog) some people have advertisements and even the graffiti you’ll see on the sides of buildings, though it’s illegal it’s still just someone trying to express themselves. Some of them may be harder to decipher than the ones that say peoples names and messages, but no matter what they all have meaning. Have you ever heard someone give a speech? Usually people make speeches about things that affect large numbers of people, like wars, or some kinds of diseases. If it’s really inspirational, and it makes you want to make a difference, that means that they gave a successful speech. But if it doesn't really persuade you, that means they have given a poor or ineffective speech. But you don’t have to wait around for someone to make a speech to inspire you, why don’t you be the one to give that inspirational speech? Why don’t you be the one to trigger the spark of motivation in others? As I mentioned earlier, your age doesn’t matter, it's just a number and it does not limit your chances of creating change!
