Love doesn't need words- it can be expressed passionately and purely through actions. I’m Tingru Liu, a math teacher and a dog owner. To me, my dog is not just a pet but a beloved family member. Her silent companionship has taught me that love and care can be wordless yet incredibly powerful. That’s why I’ve chosen to take the TEDx stage with my talk, “Giving Voice to the Voiceless,” where I’ll share my thoughts and call for action on animal protection.
In this world, many animals cannot speak for themselves or express their pain and needs. Through this talk, I hope to inspire more people to respect and care for all lives, ensuring that every living being is seen and protected. As an educator, I firmly believe that teaching is not just about imparting knowledge but also about spreading love and responsibility.
Let’s join hands to give voice to those who cannot speak and bring more warmth and hope to this world. I look forward to meeting you on the TEDx stage and raising our voices together for life!
