I'm Finished

I know for the past five/six months or so I've tried to be concise and coherant when I write. I try to develop thoughts into essays etc. etc. etc. This has begun to bother me. So from now on, I'm just going to write and see where it takes me. I don't care if it's structurely sound or any of that. I will mean what I say and I will say exactly what I mean, precision is more important than grammatics. Who's to decide what's proper speech and what's not anyways. Us that's who, not English professors, us. We decide. For God's sake, "D'oh!", Homer Simpson's exclamation, is now in the Oxford English Dictionary. It's us, not them.

Now with that said I'd like to bring up two last points.

"Judge not, lest ye be judged." -The Good Book

and

"Be the change you want to see in society." -Ghandi.

So, next time someone tells me I'm wrong this will be my answer. Don't judge, I'm defining myself.

And furthermore, "Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams." - Keats.
