[Music] your capacity for speech is divine it's the thing that generates order from chaos don't underestimate the power of truth there's nothing more powerful now in order to speak what you might regard as the truth you have to let go of the outcome you have to think all right I'm going to say what I think stupid as I am biased as I am ignorant as I am I'm going to State what I think as clear as I can and I'm going to live with the consequences no matter what they are that's an element of Faith
the idea is that nothing brings a better world into being than the stated truth now you might have to pay a price for that but that's fine you're going to pay a price for every bloody thing you do and everything you don't do you don't get to choose to not pay a price you get to choose which poison you're going to take that's it so if you're going to stand up for something stand up for your truth it'll it'll shape you because people will respond and object and tell you why you're a fool and a
biased and why you're ignorant and then if you listen to them you'll be just that LE much less like that the next time you say something and if you do that for five years you'll be so damn tough and articulate and able to communicate and withstand pressure that you won't even recognize yourself and then you'll be a force to contend with it is not safe to speak and it never will be but the the thing you got to keep in mind is that it's even less safe not to speak right it's a balance of risks
it's like you want to you want to pay the price for being who you are and stating your mode of being in the world or do you want to pay the price for being a bloody surf a one that's enslaved him or herself well that's a major price man that thing unfolds over decades and you'll just be a miserable worm at the end of about 20 years of that right no self-respect no power no ability to voice your opinions nothing left but resentment because everyone's against you because of course you've never stood stood up for
yourself it's like say what you think carefully pay attention to your words the price is it's a price you want to pay if you are willing to believe that truth is the Cornerstone of society and in the most real sense if you if you if you're willing to take that leap then tell the truth and see what happens and nothing better could possibly happen to you there'll be ups and downs and there'll be push back and there'll be controversy and all of that but it doesn't matter it's like wake up tell the truth tell the
truth or at least don't lie that's a start you know a thousand people you're going to know more than that over the course of your life but let's say a thousand for the sake of argument for now they know a thousand people that means that you're one person away from a million people and two persons away from a billion people and you're the center of that Network and now the way networks work is that information propagates in AET nwork manner so don't underestimate the power of your speech so the the the people people have an
inate longing to have the sort of thing that we're talking about articulated and so don't be thinking you're alone it's just that people can't talk they're afraid to talk or they don't know what to say and and those are real problems so if you're reasonably articulate like start talking and sharpen yourself up I mean the enemy is is a cloud they're a cloud of gats they're only courageous in groups they're only courageous in mobs if you stand your ground and don't apologize and articulate things properly they'll disperse around you like they're not even there so
most of it's illusion so don't be be afraid but be afraid of the right thing and the right thing you should be afraid of is not saying what you say because that's the same as not being and here you are suffering away you might as well be at the same time at least then there's something to you [Music] the truth is what redeems the world from hell and that's the truth
