The Right to Expression... RIght to Kindness

Kindness is one of the most beautiful forms of the 

Right to Expression.

Kindness is going out of one's way for someone,

trying to help them, 

even attempting to understand them,

and taking simple actions to accommodate them

or to help alleviate a difficult moment for them.

Still, kindness is so rare, that when performed, 

the receiver of kindness is often unappreciative, 

maybe even unaware of whatever kind action is carried out.

Service, of any kind, helps people grow,

by learning from the humility of kindness.

There is no dark side to kindness,

when done with correct intention.

The Right to Expression... Fashion

On to a lighter note in the vast subject of new rights.

One of the many Rights to Expression is the Right to Fashion.

Fashion is a form of expressing oneself just like speech.

Thus, as all expressions, fashion is important for human lives.

Design and colors have emotional and cultural meanings.

Low-cut back design and adornment like shiny hand beading evoke symbolic social meanings.

Glam heels speak loudly for their wearers.

Let me be clear. With this post, I am not advocating any particular style of dress.

Nor am I suggesting that certain clothes be worn or not worn in certain environments.

This post is what it is:  this is about the Right to Expression.

Avoid mis-reading this post by only seeing the photos. 

The photo captions emphasize the point.

The Right to Expression... multiple expressions

Expression is energy.

It is a sign of life shown in so many ways.

Art, music, language, performance, gesture, fashion 

are just some expression forms.

I declare the Right to Expression,

which is an 'umbrella' right for so many Expression rights, such as:

Right to Dance

Right to Art

Right to Music

Right to Fashion

Right to Illogical Expression

Freedom of Expression makes us healthy,
and it allows each of us the possibility to make
 our unique, individual souls shine outward.
One could even say that it is the portrait of a kind of biodiversity.

Freedom of Expression should be its own separate right.
In the United States, Freedom of Expression is often stated as being

part of the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights,

but the actual text does not even mention the word 'expression.'
