As we talk, so we make

As we talk, so we make.
Mark L.Savickas

If you ask what else I could say, I really have no clue where to start.
The real problem here is we just do not have enough expressions/narratives about Asian culture in Asian’s sight, especially the individual perspective and especially the ones in English. Therefore, whenever we talk about it, we never have enough materials based on what we could understand the issue let alone communicate with others.
The only thing I know is how to start. Just NEVER STOP speaking your mind, NEVER STOP voicing your opinions, and NEVER STOP telling your stories, however stupid/childish/trivial you think it is, otherwise no one will keep bothering to explore all the pieces of your world, nor would anyone be able to do that.

And if you do think you are not expressing yourself clearly or effectively enough, you could simply read and listen more to improve your vocabulary and write and speak more to understand and practice those vocabularies. Language is the root of the world you have built and could build. (Btw this might be why I love Natsuhuko Kyogoku this much lol. In his world, 「language」 is some kind of witchcraft, the spell. You have to believe in this first before enjoying his story lollll.)
It’s one hundred percent okay that people from other cultural backgrounds misread and appropriate the culture you grow up in. It’s actually rather fascinating since that’s always from which those flames and novelties come. You just need to add more materials that you like and believe in to the same world.

It would definitely be a long journey filled with disappointments, struggles, frustrations, and failures, whose destination is very likely never be reached since it is always extremely difficult for people to thoroughly understand each other even when they are absolutely from the same background. But that would never be an excuse to quit. It’s so irresponsible, cowardly, and lazy to quit without any attempt just because it is a goal hard to achieve.
I definitely have lots of cowardice and laziness in myself. But the least courage I have is that I will NEVER deny this side of me (deliberately) just to make myself feel better, I will confess it, and I will fight to resist and counteract against it throughout my entire life.
