Earlier this week I was shamed for drinking. Today I was
shamed for not drinking. One was dead serious and one was a joke. But the
outcome is the same: I’m not everyone’s cup of tea, shot of whiskey, whatever
your healer or potion. If there’s one thing I’m proud of it’s that I know who I
am. I know my “faults” and will gladly display them to the world – because to
me they are not faults, they are me. But…I temper me. I water down myself, I
bite my tongue, I hide who I am as to not shock or piss people off. Yet my life’s
motto is “Live authentically.” So do I unashamedly be myself no matter what the
masses opinion of me will be or do I keep my pretty mouth shut and pretend to
be who I’m not?
