I don't even know where to begin with this post. I'm mind has been more than cluttered with things I want to say and can't find the proper words to say them. I've been dealing with some rough times lately and without spilling my guts to whoever actually reads this blog and probably scaring them away I'll pick a few things. Starting with the way I've chosen to live my life.
Without much of a filter, it would seem. I'll pretty much talk to whoever will listen so I'm not over processing and thinking too much about it. Here lately that thought process has been challenged. Maybe challenging is a better fit. I was recently faced with an issue I never really had to deal with before. Something that defines me as a person and my personality. Being a strong believer in wanting to make a change in the community and society that we live in. I think we as a nation can be very close minded, and scared of change. All I want to do is change it! Some of these things being, religion, sexual preference, and my main one just sex in general. I feel like as a society we shut down when it's talked about, like it's a dirty awful thing to bring up. When in reality it's a natural thing for we as human beings to engage in. I'm not asking you to tell me about your sex life, that I realize is a personal choice between you and your partner. I just want to be here to educate you and enlighten you about the many things surrounding sex and how it can lead to another level of your relationship you may not have ever known.
I'm not claiming to be an expert, I'm simply passing on the knowledge that I have learned. Simple, right? Apparently not. I could have posted this on my Sexual Health blog, but my readers over there already know this. That's why they read it. I love what I do as a Pure Romance consultant, I am in no way ashamed of it. My family knows all about it and to the best of my knowledge support me in my endeavors. My original goal out of high school was to study alternative forms of psychology, with a concentration in sexual therapy. That doesn't make me a perv, it makes me another person trying to help you make happy, healthy choices that are right for you.
Being told that what I do could in some way harm my or someone else's "career", which mind you I'm doing data entry and filing right now, was a punch in the gut. I was blindsided because I go about my business unfiltered day to day. Threw me for one hell of a loop. I blog, tweet, facebook my feelings and thoughts all the time never once thinking about the consciences. Mainly because I've always said "If you don't like what I write, don't read it!" I think that's a valid statement to make. I think I need to work on this "filter" but tweek it to my liking.
Call me an idealist, or an optimist but I don't think it's childish to stand up for something you believe in. And choosing to stand by it even though someone disagrees with you. If we conform to the "standard" we will never win our battles. Mine isn't a huge battle, but I know I'm not alone. Every consultant does it for their own reason but they all stand for one. Education.
Do you think the gay community is going to stop trying to gain rights now? No way!
Just a thought process for the day...one of many. This one plays onto the next, stay tuned.
