Ever read something you don’t like? Of course you have. So, what did you do about it? Did you write the author and tell them they should not write? Maybe you got angry or mad.

The reactions all vary depending upon the person. For me, when reading something I don’t like is I stop reading it. Simple.

Seems like everyone is angry these days. All trying to express their own opinions/beliefs and damn those who don’t ‘agree’.

I suppose it is not appropriate to say something vulgar in a church just as it probably is not appropriate to write, “God loves you,” to a satanic worshiping forum. Or, is it?

What is appropriate to write, and when? Where? Why?

This leads me to this thought. If you’re a writer, it is always appropriate to write what you want when you want and how you want.

I do love freedom. In the United States it does appear that we enjoy some freedoms and I suppose we do when compared to such countries as North Korea or Turkey but the truth is, no one is really free.

I’m not free from having this body age and die. I’m not free from paying taxes or ‘obeying’ the laws the collective government has imposed upon me. I’m not free in many ways. Actually, not even free to write publicly, even here on wordpress as someone may become offended and thus causing wordpress to take action and suspend me from having the ‘freedom’ to write…

Fucked up? Definitely. But I will write as I see fit, even if not one person reading, likes or enjoys what I write.

Why will I write what, how, and when I want as I want?

Because that makes me happy, and NO ONE will take that freedom from me.
