why is tessa gray here ?

to voice something .

You have a talent for conveying what others struggle to. Whether it be through actions or words, communication is undeniably your strong suit. You are considered incredibly thoughtful by those around you. Perhaps you have been called eloquent, profound, or insightful. People probably often ask your thoughts, because you have a unique knack for making sense of things. You make the abstract tangible, the esoteric intelligible, the nebulous understandable. You bring into reach what many otherwise couldn't grasp. People seek you out when they seek to understand what's beyond them. You have the unique ability to give a voice and a presence to sentiments others are unable to express. This is incredibly precious. You see, this universe is not something that makes sense on its own—it must be made sense of. For the purpose of comprehending our own existence, we dream up languages, artforms, sciences, philosophies, and religions in an attempt to describe and explain what we witness. By voicing what we perceive, we make the universe take shape. Communication is essential to everything we understand. That is how meaning is constructed from the formless static noise collected by our senses. It may feel as if you are merely an observer of life, a spectator inessential to the world you watch, but people like you couldn't be more necessary. The things you voice become real and accessible through your ability to communicate them. You aren't here just to thoughtlessly watch the world pass you by—your existence is one that connects the pieces of an otherwise incomprehensible picture. The connections we can't live without live and breathe through you. Every time you understand someone and make yourself understood, you are participating in the construction of reality. But be careful—your ability to communicate so effectively gives you unrivaled potential to manipulate. Even that which begins as a falsehood can become reality if it is repeated enough times by enough people. What is spoken into existence cannot always be taken out so easily—so use your voice wisely. Remember: you're here to help us understand where here is.
