Entry: First leaf falls... Wednesday, March 17, 2004



   I don't even know how to start. There are so many things I care about. It pains me to see people walking around oblivious to what's really going beneath the surface. There's so much to say and yet I'm always holding back. At times I'm bursting to say things aloud so that everyone can hear what I have to say. I always end up holding myself back. I am always afraid of rejection, ridicule, and prejudice. It sickens me to constantly feel this way. When I am uninhibited by these things I can express my viewpoint, my opinion, my self. When I can feel safe enough to speak or act, I am a different person, I am me.

   No one should have to feel this way. I can choose to blame so many things. Society. Pop Culture. The Media. Corporate America. Geopolitics.  There really is no end to what we can blame or shift responsiblity. It's not to say that they don't share the blame, they are very much liable, but I am trying to take charge of my life more. I don't think things will just suddenly turn in my favor but letting things stay the way they are is not going to help anyone out.
