Here is the transcript:

What's up y'all  I thought about doing something different with my Youtube video (to) share something that's really, really meaningful from me.

I just kinda create something that I can somehow.. somehow be 
inspiring you know? 

And uh... I thought about doing a podcast, but then I realize .. I sat there, I'm thinking, "Why do a podcast when you can do a video? What is it about podcast that is so special?"  Well, the thing about about podcast is that you just say what's in your heart. Say what ever it is you need to give out and just upload it. Where as videos, you have to like covert it, save it,  upload it. It's a lot of work and you have to do a of editing, so.  

I ask myself why as a person who is.. -as an individual who is hard of hearing .. and upload a podcast when there are several hard of hearing or deaf individuals out there who may not get the access except those who are hearing. And it wouldn't be fair. I mean, it wouldn't be right.. for me as a person who is hard of hearing.  I think a video might be it. That's what got me choosing a video over a podcast. You know. 

When I'm doing a video, I (try) to keep it concise. I keep it really short. I keep it really personal.  I thought about this today. I wonder, "so many people in the world, in this world are going through a lot of things." And it's -it's hard to find a sense of belonging where you fee like... there's somebody in the world is feeling lonely at this exact moment. Because they don't have the connection. They don't know how to connect with people who can relate to them. And it's hard to find people like that because it's just hard man.  You know, and uh.. everybody wants to be connected with someone. I thought about.. I could connect to somebody on YouTube. Doing this video and hopefully, I can help somebody out there and be their inspiration.  It's free, it's my video, I can do whatever I want. Giving my insights. My focus..  My focus is to inspire people and help them see that they're not alone and saying that uh.. I'm somehow there .. for those to want to listen, for those who want some help. I can only be honest and continue to do these videos and um, hoping somebody out there I can help.

I know I've been doing lyrics videos and stuff. But  honestly, I've been thinking about this for a long time. I thought that uhh..maybe it's time to try something new. Maybe it's time for me to spread my knowledge about things uh.. be somebody's inspiration. 

Um.. This video is to share to you guys that my YouTube channel might be a mixture of a lot of things. But I'm really, really hoping to do more videos about random stuff you know and see where I can go from there.

And before I go. I went to the.. um.. I went to the store a couple weeks ago and I randomly I saw this.. this amazing. uh.. amazing.. I don't know what you call it, lol. You put it on your dresser and you read it. And it says.. it pretty much says. "Be yourself .. (because) (everybody).. (because) everyone else is taken" 

When I saw this, I.. really um I was really inspired by it. It gives me courage to believe in myself and saying that it is enough to be yourself. 'Cause if I try and be somebody I'm not. Heh.. I'm going to end up being stressed. I'm going to end up pretending to be somebody I'm not. You know? I'm going to be ending up haha.. becoming an actress, except that I'm not getting paid for that. lol

This always.. every morning, I wake up and I read those words. It gives me the courage to stay true to myself and not let anybody put me down. And um.. Stay true to myself, you know? It gives me motivation. So I think that's what um.. that's what this video is all about, you know? Finding my new path. Finding new ways to try something know.. heh..you know I hope you enjoy this video..

Peace.. haha.. - Z
