"They knew, for their own good reasons, what the world was like, and their experience acted as a filter through which any new message was tested, confirmed, rejected, challenged, and reinterpreted. Changing their minds would have meant changing the world they experienced, not simply convincing them of a new set of ideals around equality of opportunity and the desirability of a different world." - Kessler, Ashenden, Connell and Dowsett (1985)
For the past year (and a bit), I've been writing. Writing to save my life . Writing to unveil reality. Writing to change my life (both literally and figuratively). Taking the time to write has changed the thoughts inside my head, altered the way I read information, inspired me to see the world differently, encouraged me to listen more attentively and prompted me to find my inner voice. So, Speak your mind Free yourself with words.
