Publicity

So I changed my blog back to public. Now anyone and everyone and their cat when the cat is home alone (because I'm pretty sure cats do people things when no one's looking) can read my blog. I hated having it private. I am not a private person and having to "secure" my "information" makes me incredibly uncomfortable. I realized that I really don't care who reads my thoughts anymore. Even if its someone who's personal relationship with me has been soley based on bullshit for the last 26 years and them reading this will bring things to the surface that without the blog probably would have never been discussed reads it, that's okay.

So on Facebook......boring boring Facebook......I was tagged in a note about dreams. Not the sleepy kind, but the, "my dream is to one day make out with Johnny Depp" kind. At the end of the written inspiration there was a little, "I tagged people that I know have dreams within them...follow your heart :)". I read that and thought, "Okay fine, I'll tell you about my dreams and which ones have come true and which ones have yet to come true. Maybe it'll inspire someone else" We all know how much I love talking about myself so how can I miss an opportunity when someone asks me to????

I will live in Denmark one day. To you, the non-Denmark-educated, it may seem that this is a silly dream. To me though, it is my biggest dream. Denmark has everything I want there, most importantly, no one I know. I would love to get away from the pressure of everything that is North America, just for a little while. Plus they have no tornadoes there. I don't like tornadoes.

I will meet Ellen one day. I briefly discussed this earlier, but wanted to mention it again.

When I own a house and am comfortable with my finances, I will drive around a few times a month, picking up street kids and bringing them in for a family supper. Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas will be full of lots of stranger love and I will be satisfied. Because stranger love is the best kind of love.

When I die, or move away to Denmark, my friends and family will speak of me as a passionate advocate of human rights and education. Someday I will be a well known activist in these areas and I will help to change the world and bring the people out of ignorance.

I have other small aspirations for myself and my family, but all the big dreams have already been accomplished. I am happy, I have two beautiful children and I have a wonderful husband. I DON'T have a house, but I don't need one right now. I DON'T have a puppy or kitty, but they will come in time. I don't have a million dollars, but I do have everything I need. My kids are fed and clothed and we have somewhere to live.

I believe in freedom of speech. With respect of course. You can't just go around yelling "NIGGA" whenever the hell you want, but you should be able to express your opinions in regards to the word "nigger" without being afraid of a black person knocking you out.

I believe in freedom of religion. If want to be an atheist and live a "negative" lifestyle then let me be. If you want to believe that aliens rule over mankind.....well.... as long as you have checked with your doctor to make sure you're not clinically insane, then all the power to you.

I believe in human rights in the most general sense. I have every right to do whatever I want to my own body. If I want to fill it with drugs or alcohol or penises that is MY choice. Who are you to tell me I can't do that??? Go ahead and try to "save" me from myself buy taxing the shit out of it, but don't tell I can't do it and send me to jail for smoking a joint. Jackass.

I believe that no has the right to take another human life, with the possible exception of self defense.....POSSIBLE. If someone breaks into my home and threatens the lives of my family, I may have to kill you. But capitol punishment and non life threatening abortions should not be allowed.

I believe we need to educate our children better. Whoever said "ignorance is bliss" is an asshole.
