Being PC

I will say this is my blog and these are my opinions. I am on a soapbox about being politically correct today. Like come on people, we are still a free country, my opinions don't have to be your opinions, my views don't have to be clones of yours. Take a deep breath and accept that not everyone has the same views as you.

If you are happy being mainstream and having someone tell you how to think, well fine good for you, but I'll think for myself thank you very much.

How many times have I heard someone whine because I see things from a different point of view? And how I saw things made me react a certion way and I lived my life differently? What I need to apologize for that? I need to apologize because I've jumped ship from being Mainstream and I'm existing on the fringe of society. I don't think so. I think it is getting sickening that all these conservatives are becoming too right wing and their whining is getting so loud, others are starting to give in to what they want, simply to shut them up. Well I've got a problem, with any of my rights being taken from me. I got a problem with anyone censoring me because I happen to not label things as they do. I got a problem withmy perspective being judged because it is different and they took offense to how I observe things. I will stop now as I never make sense when I react emotionally. I just needed to get this off my chest.

i was just answering Mom on my I am From blog thinking "sister Pam, where are you?" , and when i finished, i looked up and saw your latest blog. i am SOOOOOOO glad that you're here! at least i'm not the only person on the site that will verbalize that they don't like all of this Little Mary Sunshine smoke that is frequently being blown around here.

 

let's you and me go to the Mallomars factory and pig out.

No one was criticizing Sandy or anyone else for not being politicially correct or for living an off-beat life. Sandy and I were just having a civil discussion about white-washing our pasts when doing the "I am from" writing exercises. I was in no way putting Sandy down for being different. If anything I was trying to bring out that we all have off-beat or painful things in our personal histories and that she is not as alone here in here as she had expressed feeling.

Mom,

I was in no way referring to your reply to Sandy. It is bigger then that and I won't go into specifics here either. I wish I could read all the replies, they get cut off on the side.

well I am glad to have you ALL in my life. It is good to see topics and different points of view. Gives you something to think about, and ponder and sometimes can change how "you" look at things. Life is not one dimentional. I am and have always been a "people" watcher when in an airport or some place with a lot of people.
