I have always believed that honesty and genuineness are two of the most important characteristics a person can exude. I like to pride myself on being, if nothing else, always genuine. I do not believe in truth because I’m religious, but rather because we only have so much time on this earth, and goddamnit, for our time on this earth to be meaningful, we must examine our time from an honest perspective.
If one is going to attempt to examine one’s own life in an honest light, the question follows, “What is an honest perspective?” What I’m feeling right now about an experience eight years ago in my own life is not necessarily how I felt about that experience when it happened. Nor will I view that experience in the same light another eight years from now. Hell, I might even view the same event differently within the hour, minute, second.
Angry, sad, drunk, calm, elated–these states bring different perspectives with them. All of them honest–are they equally valid in their own ways?
Therefore, this blog is only an attempt at honesty and nothing else, because what I think on the events of my life past, present, and future, could easily change.
