Writing is not about being right...

...At least to me it's not.

Many a time, my truths will not be the same as yours, not due to the delusion (hopefully).. but due to what I see and the way I see it, due to how I have been taught to think and what to think.
My situations, my privilege or lack thereof , my blessings counted or not, my sins , my dispositions, my influences and interactions.

All of these things , and potentially more, are the reasons that even though we all live life, we live it differently. The things that make you who you are , the things that matter to you, and that you may think should matter to others , might not be the same.

Not due to morals , not due to what is more important, but due to priority.

Your own child will be more important than someone else's child. Your stand on what should be right and fair wont be based on your child but on what it should be for all children.

We live in a world where some people are okay with 6 year old's going to work , rather than learning how to read.
A world where there is so much pollution that just breathing could cause you to be sick.
Sometimes doing the right thing is less of a priority than money or power.

Writing about this, is speaking my truths - my expressions.
In a world where there is always someone trolling , taking offence about something, or just having something to say - that is their truths - their priorities.

Until next time...
