Synopsis[]
Rebecca Parham explains about the "angel" and the "demon" inside a person's head, and encourages their viewers to listen to their angels.
Explanation[]
Basically, what Rebecca explained in this vlog is about the "angel" and the "demon" inside a person's head, which are basically voices that respectively encourage and discourage the person.
Demon[]
Basically, what the demon does is not only make the person do crimes, physical attacks, verbal attacks and other inconveniences, but it also discourages the person who are doing these actions themselves. Discouraging including insulting themselves, changing their mood to sadness and anger, finding their lives difficult, telling themselves the negative characteristics and even suicidal thoughts.
For the majority of Rebecca's life, she has listen to the demon. Several instances is the reason why she did so. This includes the fact that other kids, in her middle school classes, judged her for being horizontally challenged and more. She also discouraged herself when animating and even singing, and she even talks about her sufferance for the process of her upcoming animations and songs, especially on her Twitter, even nowadays.
Angel[]
The angel is another imaginary voice that, opposing to the demon, encourages the person who they are with. The angel is not only self-encouraging, but it also makes the person respect other people, giving them compliments and more.
Rebecca has heard her angel for the minority of her life, but she is listening to it more often nowadays. This is only because she is currently having a YouTube channel that is constantly growing in views, subscribers and a general attraction with her.
