About Me

My photo
I am a man about the business of taking care of business, minding my own business and staying out of yours. I don't care what devices people use to separate themselves from others (religion, money, race, gender, class, intelligence etc.) at the end of the day you came from the earth and so shall you return. The only advice I have is try to live and love without fear.

Writer's Block..

     When people think of writer's block they think of some nameless guy sitting at his computer with a paper due tomorrow staring at a blank page with nothing to say. But when I think of writer's block I think of  having emotions and feelings that comes to mind and that I AM able to write about however, the block is how my words will be perceived.
      There are times when I want to express the way I feel about things I've pondered on but I chose to be silent on these issues because I don't know how people will react to them. I really can't explain my thought process, but I can say that most people feel the same way.
      One thought that comes to mind  involves me dealing with people and their political views. I feel that people won't always agree when it comes to certain ideals but as long as we try to do what is right as a whole, change can be born.
     Controversial issues within certain settings such as the workplace can lead to discomfort all around. So back to my question; what should I write when I feel I may spark too much of an interest in the reader due to my views not being politically correct or sensitive to various issues?
      I'm also trying to understand if I don't write what I feel, how would that effect my thoughts and views in the future. Some people feel writing is therapeutic and some are too timid to even think about a certain issues let alone write about them. So what should I write?
