Real is Real
This place is real. I don’t know of another way to put it and even want to. I can’t write this eloquently because I don’t think real is eloquent. It’s actually the contrary, but most don’t see it this way, which infuriates me and makes me question the authenticity of this persons reality. I am not mad at these individuals, I actually relate to them. We take things at face value and accept things without a degree of skepticism (Read “The 5 Ways to Practice Positive Skepticism” https://www.intellectualtakeout.org/blog/5-ways-practice-positive -skepticism). Real can be found everywhere despite the counterfeit personalities which encompass us. We have to look for them and not take anything at face value. As I’ve contemplated this thought process I’ve come to understand it does not mean to be uncivil to those who we come in contact with, but the opposite. Express from the start who you are and do not conform to the personalities around you and don’t be apologetic for being different.
