         <description><![CDATA[<p>Although you tell me to write about ONE experience, I think that I don't have any very special experience that built me up. Myself at this time is the product of một chuỗi sự kiện diễn ra. When I was 9 (or 10), I met a friend who was very intelligent. Before that, I thought that I was very good (like the best in the world). However, the appearance of this friend tells me that I am not anything. Like this time I acknowledged myself that I have to learn more about everything. This friend also is who I want to become - a person who has knowledge in every field. So then, I study because I love it, because I feel myself improving through lessons, because I know it will help my future.</p><p><br></p><p>Then, I grew up (14 years old). This event is that I hate my friend so that I post on Facebook something (of course don't tell this person is her). But everyone knows that this is her and affects her life worse. Then, I have to work with my parents and her parents (so terrible). Myself at that time thought that I didn't mention her but everyone knows, so that is because she is bad. However, then, I realize that the fact isn't like this. She can be bad, but I don't have rights to do like this (especially when she didn't harm me so much).</p><p>When I went to PTNK, I learned more. I realize how to respect other people because everyone is so nice. Moreover, I think that I have cut down own my idea that who studies bad is bad.</p><p><br></p><p>About my dream career, it is to be a dentist. There is a fun story that when I was young, because my parents are dentists, everyone around me told me that I have to become a dentist. So I really hate this, and think that this is my last choice. However, when I grow up, I know that this is my path for the future. Not only because my parents are dentists and they inspire me, but also I understand what a dentist does (không chỉ gồm mắc cài, nhổ răng, thật ra còn chỉnh lại hàm, thay đổi được nụ cười của người khác). Anh I also want to help other, not something so big, just help them in an emergency (like tai nạn or chấn thương), nhưng mà con chọn răng hàm mặt một phần cũng vì ít đòi hỏi phẫu thuật quá nhiều, con khá là nhát. I am not the person who can decide quickly or independently, in fact, this option is suggesting my parents and I sound that fit myself (kiểu thật ra nó phù hợp với tính cách và cả triển vọng). But I am the person who does my best for my choice, and never let myself regret.</p><p><br></p><p>Just sharing a little but my parents are so nice, and they are the most important spiritual support. And more about myself, I live with my own rules. Like I love philosophy, because I believe that people have to realize and know clearly about what life they want to live. For myself, the worth of life is what I do tomorrow better than I do today.</p><p><br></p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Freedom of speech is widely regarded as one of the most fundamental rights in modern society. It allows individuals to express their beliefs, opinions, and emotions without fear of punishment. However, freedom does not mean absolute license. Every right comes with responsibility, and speech is no exception. While people have the right to express themselves, they should not use that right to harm or humiliate others. Therefore, freedom of speech should not include the freedom to offend.</p><p>Firstly, the freedom to offend can cause severe and sometimes permanent emotional damage. Words can wound as deeply as actions. Offensive speech - especially when it targets someone’s identity, race, gender, or religion - can lead to feelings of humiliation, anxiety, or exclusion. Victims of verbal abuse may suffer long-term psychological effects that restrict their ability to participate in society freely. Protecting people from such harm is not censorship; it is a form of social compassion and justice. A truly free society must also be a safe one.</p><p>Secondly, freedom of offend often fuels conflict, hatred, and even violence. History provides countless examples where provocative or hateful language led to riots, discrimination, or war. When words are used to attack rather than to communicate, they destroy dialogue and create division. Society functions best when freedom of expression is balanced with respect and empathy. Limiting offensive speech is not suppressing ideas - it is preventing speech from becoming a weapon.</p><p>Of course, some argue that the freedom to offend is essential for progress. They claim that challenging social norms often requires saying uncomfortable truths. While this is partly true, there is a clear difference between challenging ideas and insulting people. Constructive criticism encourages growth; personal offense only breeds anger.</p><p>In conclusion, freedom of speech is a cornerstone of democracy, but it should never be used as a shield for cruelty. True freedom exists not in saying whatever we want, but in knowing when our words might harm others. Speech, like all freedoms, must be guided by empathy, respect, and responsibility.</p>]]></description>
