WELCOME

A Public Personal Apology

It takes a really good friend to point out something that I am doing wrong, or, that at least has some potentially negative implications for myself and others that may be looking up to me as a friend or more importantly even as a parent.

Social media mainstream channels such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, are the fastest way we communicate and represent ourselves with today. Therefore I do have to take them a bit more seriously with the understanding that the "snippets of information" I share daily spread as fast, if not faster, than a contemporary virus. So, in other words, I have to have a more responsible and attentive attitude when posting any content on them. Because everything I post has an impact on someone, somewhere, somehow.

I like to think that freedom of expression or expressing and portraying and telling myself as I feel in the moment has some merit because wrong or right, it is a representation of myself in its truest of form. But maybe I should ask myself first, is it productive? Is it harmful to others that may not be equipped yet with the proper amount of knowledge to see it through the proper lenses and give it the proper weight? Is it valuable??

So, lately, my dearest friend has pointed out to me, that I have lost some of my values, some of my beliefs and probably trashed the social media channels I am on with poor choices as reflected in my posted content. 

I was of course like any other human being a bit annoyed about the intervention, but fortunately, as always, I do listen to the people I care for and surround myself with. At the very least I place their words on that imaginary scale to weigh their validity and then take action one way or the other.

So, what was I actually doing wrong?

I have been posting pictures of myself that were borderline silly and, for some, inappropriate because somewhat sexual in nature.

What is it about?

A desperate call for attention to fighting off forced lengthy confinement?

Maybe. 

A more profound state of loneliness?

Perhaps.

An older and easier way to find gratification and possibly pleasure? 

A strong possibility.

OR...

Is it a way, wrong or right, to express my femininity, sexuality, curiosity, and joy for the changes happening in my body and mind? 

In the end, no matter which is it, the delivery was a choice that has raised questions, reactions, and intervention. 

(Interactivity)

To my friend, one thing is for sure,

I thank you for being my friend, I thank you for voicing your opinions no matter if I like them or not.

They make me think and act.

I love you. Always will.

PS I do apologize if I was offensive and or damaging in anyways.

  • You are a brave, honorable person to recognize when something you do, although may seem right for you, may not be right for others who depend and look up to you.
    Unfortunately, this moment in time, surrounding so much change and uncertainty, amplified so much more of insecurities we all hold inside, which i turns exaggerates our own weaknesses that much more. Today the Governor of NY implemented and pushed Social Distancing to now April 30. This means so many of us to will go even into a deeper,
    anxiety and depression.
    I remind myself that everything happens for a reason …… in this moment of uncertainty I choose to only look at the positives around me and remind myself that there are so many things to be grateful for!! One of them is YOU!!!
    Your blog, your posts, your lessons learned are a powerful point to others who are behind you and in front of you. You are not just a voice, but a teacher. People are reading and watching your actions. You are a role model to many. Don’t loose sight of the gift you have right now. Xoxoxo
