Silence is sin.<\/em><\/p>\n
I stare at the subheading of my personal blog site for a moment, then click the \u201cPublish\u201d icon. The new article appears at the top of my website. With a long sigh, I stand up to relax my wrists. Through RSS and social networks, the message soon reaches everywhere. Blogs have taken the power of publishing from newspapers, but I feel that people too often neglect that power, preferring to shouting irrational positions or simply retweet the viewpoints of others. I believe strongly in the power of sharing well-formed opinions. It began, if I\u2019m honest, as a way to feed my ego, but it\u2019s not about me anymore.<\/p>\n
My passion for sharing my views started in middle school, when I was able to understand new concepts faster or find unique ways to solve questions in math and physics classes. My teachers gave me frequent chances to share my ideas on the blackboard, under the focus of every eye in the classroom. It was exciting. It was vanity.<\/p>\n
In high school, our astronomy club held several public activities. The first one I helped organize was a two-day field trip that attracted 92 schoolmates. For most of them, it was their first time to see amazing sights like meteor showers and the Milky Way. For astronomy club members, it was our chance to show that the stars we loved, the ones that twinkle in the night sky, could outshine the ones our schoolmates loved, the stars who sing or dance.<\/p>\n
I initially resented feeling like an astronomy baby sitter, fielding stupid-seeming questions like why there are 88 Constellations but only 12 Zodiac signs. My resentment continued from the preparation to the trip itself, but when I climbed onto the shuttle bus back to the city, head aching from lack of sleep after a night stargazing, I opened my social media, and find the screen filled with posts about our field trip. The joy in their words and photos punched a hole through the dam of my heart. I smiled. I had been bitter because my \u201ctour guide\u201d role had kept me too busy to take any decent photos of the stars. Instead, I took a screenshot of their posts and commented on my social media: \u201cSeems everyone is happy.\u201d
\nI\u2019m discovering that the happiness of sharing my knowledge lies in what I create for others, rather than showing off.<\/p>\n
In May, I participated in an activity aimed at helping more people understand LGBTQIA+ issues. We spread knowledge, distributed rainbow flags, and asked people to hug people of different sexual orientations. When I came home, I saw homophobic comments under our post online. At first, I replied to the commenter in spare minutes while I was doing my homework. As the tension increased, I put my hands on the keyboard instead of the practice book more frequently. When our anonymous troll typed \u201cWhatever, I should sleep now,\u201d the feeling was like I had just defeated someone physically in a fight. I looked at the clock; it was 11 p.m. and indeed time to sleep. Although our teacher criticized me the next day because I hadn\u2019t finished my homework, I still felt the time I\u2019d spent was worthy when I see my friends who came out are treated much more warmly now. I am understanding that sharing opinions is the weapon that I wield to change the world.<\/p>\n
Step by step, I\u2019m exploring the essence of sharing my ideas throughout my teenage years. I am proud to express my opinions in public, and will pursue the spread of truth for my whole life. Think one person can change the world? With the power of speech, so do I.<\/p>\n
I refresh the web page; a red dot signals me that there are new comments on the blog I just posted. Now, what do they say?<\/p>\n
