Destination: Self Loathing
Destination: Self loathing
It's easy to lose yourself in isolation. With no one to keep you company but the weight of all you've done and the proof of it in front of you as a constant reminder as you look in the mirror. But everything must go back to normal, or as normal as possible as you gather yourself to face the day. You may be screaming on the inside, but on the outside, you have to be alive and not grimace as you smile. I read somewhere, that if you smile, or make any kind of facial expression for 10 minutes or so, you'll become happy, or become sad. I don't know if I believe that or not, I don't want to try, but I do know that you'll become anything if you will it enough. It's easy to hide, it's easy to mask yourself, it's each to blend in if that's what you want to do, and it's okay. There's no written law that says, "War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength." Unless, this is George Orwell's 1984, and if it is, we should all kill ourselves. Destination: Self loathing, but maybe with a few sunny days ahead. Self isolation isn't always fun.

Our waiter said...
to me and my fiancé, who is blind in one eye, and partially blind in the other eye, as he saw me leading my man to the table. My man was holding onto my elbow, which FYI, is a good way to lead blind people because then they can feel every movement you make a couple seconds before they have to make the same movement, ie, steps.
Waiter: Oh, it's so nice of you to lead him. You're a good person. Me: This is my fiancé. Waiter: Oh, I thought you were helping him. Me: I am, because he can't see that well. (I look over at my man, and he has this smile on his face, as if to say, "this guy,") Waiter: I guess you only need one menu then. Me: Yep, one menu would be great, but he already knows what he wants, like usual. (My man is a creature of habit) Waiter: Where are you from? Me: I'm from Columbus, Ohio. Waiter: No, where are you really from? Me: Well, I was born in New York Waiter: No, no, where are you really from? Are you American? Me: (sigh) I'm Chinese American Waiter: So you're from China. Me: (I look over at my man, and he's trying so hard not to laugh) No, but my parents are. (Before our waiter can ask) Yes, I speak Chinese. Waiter: Good, good, enjoy your dinner. My man: Well, that was awkward Me: the most awful 3 minute conversation ever. ~~~~~
I know that some people don't know better, but from the way that the waiter was speaking was like he couldn't believe my man wasn't retarded and eating from a straw the way he looked at him with pity. Please, though my man may be legally blind, he is so much more aware than me. He protects me, he makes me walk away from traffic, so if a car comes barreling over, it'll hit him before it hits me. He helps teach a woman's self defense class at OSU.
He allows women to pepper spray, punch, and kick him, and doesn't mind when the women giggle as he writhes in pain. He'd rather he get hurt than them. He also carries a gun on him, wherever the law allows him. He teaches Conceal and Carry classes.
He's very skilled at shooting, and that's where he met many of his friends. They are extremely loyal and great towards him. They trust him, and vice versa. Yes, he is legally blind, but he also has sight. It's all very confusing, and it's a story for another time.
It just really bothers me when people take one look at him, and that look of fear or pity show up. I don't think I'll ever get used to it. Eventually I will, but not now.

The amount of messages telling me to watch Blackwater Gospel.
It is a dark, creepy animation about an angry priest who rages at a man that doesn’t believe what he believes.
The analogy to the real world is astounding.
This animation is violent however. Viewer discretion is advised.
