REALITY TV LIFE
I watch "The Voice," "American Idol,"
"Undercover Boss," etc....for the pain and tears, not for the talent.
Like in sports, I don't care who wins, as long as everyone appears to grow. If
they reveal themselves, I feel less alone. Death is less scary if we all die,
even at different rates. Thank you cynical exploitative producers for allowing us to
share each other's suffering, so our own is less unique and intense....I mean
it.

My blog is for vulnerable communication from my heart, mind, and spirit, meant to touch readers who are passionate about creativity, art, life, and cultures.... Nastiness and personal attack are expressions of bitterness, not meaningful communication. The internet drowns in negativity, but not this site....Thoughtful criticism, however, is not negative, but an affirmation of ideals, hopes, and caring. Positive comments are more useful if they are not meant for my ego, but to share compassion and love....Thanks for reading, feeling, and sharing.

By watching others suffer/suffering, we get released?
