We have probably heard more than a dozen of times that freedom of expression is given to every individual to engage and participate in a larger society. Freedom of expression is both written and oral in which an individual has the rights to express his/her emotions, ideas, or his/her sentiments. Having this opportunity to express ourselves it is also one way of exercising our rights. To be able to exercise freedom of expression in a right way, one must know his/her right and the law of the country that serves as guidelines to the people. I do believe with this saying “ignorance of the law excuses no one” that one must know his/her rights to be able to know where he/she stands. It is also very important to know and be aware with the law because it is imposed to know your limits to when, where, and how to use this freedom of expression. Everything has its own limitation for public safety, to prevent disorder and crimes, to protect health and moral as well as to protect the reputations and the rights of others.

            Freedom of expression is also one way of telling the truth and your innermost feelings. To exercise this right one must also consider the consequences that will occur and sensible to the feelings of others. As long as you know your right and you’re not using someone for your own self-interest. Used this freedom in a civilized and fair manner where you don’t violate other’s rights.
