Writing is the only way I can seem to get a word in.

Day after day I find myself bubbling inside with things I feel need to be said.  Some days I feel as if I will explode because I have no place to vent my opinions, and my frustrations over the issues in society. The ones that continue to erupt and inflame social unrest.

I sit quietly on the sidelines and see things that I don’t think the actors themselves see. I sit back and watch what is going on.  I hear the voices of many who all speak at once, causing confusion and chaos. I want to scream out, “SHUT UP.’ I want to replay the scenes I see, over for them so they can see themselves, and realize what they are doing and saying.

No one wants to “listen” to what I have to say. They are too busy keeping confusion going. I decided that if I were to be heard, I’d have to put it all down on paper, and maybe, just maybe, someone would stop arguing long enough to  actually “hear” what I had to say through my writings.
