I have published 24 blog posts and James Mayes has liked two of them. So I know he’s reading them. He is clearly a man who does not hand out compliments lightly. When he does it means something. Why do I value his opinion and need his approval?
You see I am a people pleaser and somewhat of a whore. I can adapt and transform. I can be whatever you want me to be. I majored in English. My dad thought that was dicey business because the grades are subjective. I’m ok with that. I only need one paper to figure out what the professor is looking for. Just let me know and I can serve it up to you on a silver platter.
Being like this makes me a good student. I always made good grades. What it doesn’t make me is my own person. I have been searching for my true north for as long as I can remember. When you only exist in the mirror, it is hard to be yourself in the dark.
Writing this blog is therapeutic. It serves many purposes, mostly for me. Believe it or not I have held back. I have edited because some of the people are still around to get offended or even shocked. Also, I’ve done things I’m not particularly proud of like making fun of poor, little crippled Renee on the playground. Tick tock the game is locked.
So I’m doing this for me. Let the chips fall where they may, and if James Mayes likes it, even better..
