Looking at this site, and realizing how long ago I started this page, and how terrible I was at continuing it. Not going to start saying that I am going to try my best to continue it, because at this point I am aware that is bullshit. I am aware of what my issues are and truly it comes down to terrible focus.
I live in a house full of constant distractions. I rather choose to watch TV with family than sit alone somewhere to really focus on writing. My brain is also to blame with its thoughts that are constantly flickering in my head. Whether they’re new ideas, self doubt about whatever I am writing, and if anyone will actually be interested in it.
I think I have come to accept that whether or not people read this or feel anything about it, I just need to keep sharing my brain. Getting it out of my head and out into the world to maybe inspire someone else who had better discipline, focus, and motivation.
So what has brought me back to this platform to post anything? It’s the political turmoil of the United States. The last four years has pulled me into focusing on on our government, and 2020 allowed me to see it for what it is without the rose tinted glasses. Last year took away so many distractions and forced us to really see the grit and grime that exists in this country.
I feel that the way we advertise the United States has been pretty much a painted whore. 2020 forced this whore to clean its face and expose its scars, blemishes, tired lines, and true heart. We got to see her pain from so many things that really haven’t healed. From racism, inequality, to conspiracies created to keep particular humans strong.
I will continue at some point with more in depth opinions and shared blurbs from what I have posted on other mediums over the years. If anyone is reading this, please let me know with a like or comment. Feedback is always welcomed as long as it is done respectfully. I am open to differences of opinion, but will not tolerate personal attacks. If this goes well, maybe I’ll share some inspired art. Who knows. Maybe I’ll forget to come back again just like before.
Until next time…
