I’ve been watching documentaries lately. It is becoming a real problem because I think I am starting to see more conspiracies than normal. I now have guilt trips about fast food, Wal-mart, anything NOT organic, anything organic (because it might be inorganic masquerading as organic), you name it. I don’t trust labels, advertisements, politicians, teachers, or police officers. This has to stop. I feel some kind of pressing need to move out of this country but have no means nor determination to do so.
About the strawberries: I just like how they look. I don’t know how they tie into the post.
I think I’m gonna take this blog in a different direction. Maybe more of the actual crazy babble that is in my head and less of the proper and palletable ladylike writing. I have to send these thoughts somewhere, I suppose. I might explode.
Maybe someone, somewhere, will read my blog and actually want to come back and read it again because it is 100% genuine.
So the original point: Documentaries can make you doubt what you’ve believed your whole life. In 90 minutes, they can totally rewire your brain if you allow them to. It is especially easy when the evidence they provide is too profound to deny, like video footage and signed documents.
A short poem for those who hate paragraphs:
If you see me
On a ledge
Won’t you call me down?
I wouldn’t be
On a ledge
If you had seen me frown.

Have a delicious summer day.

Your blog is a reflection of you. My advice is to blog about whatever’s on your mind, as long as it’s honest. Don’t limit yourself, and don’t allow others to limit you either.
And yes, be careful of documentaries. All too often they have their own agenda, like anything by Michael Moore (spit), and they seriously distort facts about matters that have long been settled.
BTW, thanks for stopping by.

That was the problem, I think. I felt limited because I was embarrassed about what others would think about my writing. Done with that!
Agreed about Michael Moore! Also, your blog is really interesting, keep it up!
