Honesty -I changed the way I wrote my blog because I wanted more honesty in my writing. My theory is if I write about more, my writing will have no choice but to get deeper.
I want to break through a wall of self consciousness and get more honest with my writing. I need to find a voice.
This morning, I realized that I’m still restricting myself. The first few attempts at writing this post today were full of fluff. It sucked, it was safe, and I was frustrated.
All wasn’t lost, it was a reminder that being honest is a battle that you have to continue to wage against what the world wants you to be. Stay vigilant.
“Reality” – The status quo protects the oppressor, doesn’t it? People in power love to say things like “be realistic” when realism is them retaining power. People love to say “I’m (my opinion is) in the middle” with whatever they say when “in the middle” just means I think the people believe whatever I say. People love to say “it’s just a joke” when the joke is they know there is no consequence for their bigotry.
The oppressor always win in the system.
