One to One Interaction

 

I recently realized that I become the most upset about something when I know that I am wrong.  Not wrong in the sense of 1+1=3, but wrong when compared to the moral and societal compulsions that I am obliged to follow.  I feel obligated to express my point and make others understand my train of thought—because I fear being mislabeled and the recourse of my conclusions.

Fear is compulsory, I cannot avoid it when I go through this thought process.  I have been subjected to so much additional stress in my life due to those infectious societal standards that I fear the judgment that I incur from being an outlier.  I have read 1984, Fahrenheit 451, The Fountainhead, and I have witnessed firsthand what fear and public discrimination can do to an individual.  I fear suppression of my thoughts, feeling, and actions above all other things.

I believe in freedom of segregation, preordained justice, and fear.  We live in a society that is on the brink of an outstanding turning point, and it is still fear that controls the populace.

“I must not fear.  Fear is the mind-killer.  Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.  I will face my fear.  I will permit it to pass over me and through me.  And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.  Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.  Only I will remain”
