The Power of Words

Check out this You Tube clip! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hzgzim5m7oU
The media can represent many things in a positive way. Not only can it show us things from real time situations, destructions and fantasy worlds but it can show us powerful meaningful messages that can  be important and inspiring to people. Not only does YouTube have is junk videos but some of the videos are powerful to humans. Like this one for example, it gives me the message on how powerful words can really be. Just a short saying with 8 words in it can change an human’s perceptions on how they feel towards another person, Amazing. I believe that words are actions, and the Medias functions can show these kinds of lessons, again this video for example. Words and language are a powerful tool in order to express feelings, thoughts and ideas. It’s important to see how words can really impact people. Creating these kinds of clips is teaching short life lessons through media technology is very important as well as beneficial to society. I like how YouTube can have its fun and jokes but it can also have a serious side as well. There should be more YouTube clips like this one posted to peoples FaceBook walls, it wouldn't hurt! I just love this video.

  1. oh my goodness, this video was so touching. I was so curious to see what she wrote on the sign. And even though I knew it was going to be something good, my jaw still dropped when I finally saw what it said. I agree with you that words can have such power behind them and we need to learn to use them for more good instead of bad. Thank you for posting this video, I LOVED it!!
