Burning Money

http://raquelokyay.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/burning-money.jpgOne of the privileges of writing a blog that no one reads, is that you don't have to worry about content, post frequency, readability, originality, or...anything for that matter.  And I think that is really important.  I don't want my posts to be created by thinking about what others want to read.  I want to write from the heart, and write what makes me happy.  I think this should apply to the rest of my life as well.  I say what I feel, I don't say what I think others want to hear.   I use the methods I believe will work, not the ones that everyone else thinks I should use.  Do I do this?  No.  Because I'm a chickenshit.  I care too deeply about how I am perceived by others.  But I am working to change that.

Part of this process is learning who I really am.  Breaking through the facade of who I want others to think  I am, and finding my soul.  In an effort to discover my true self, I have been contemplating various questions.  I asked myself, "If you had all the money in the world, what would you do with it?"  My answer:  Burn it.  All the money, of every denomination, in one place.  Let's burn it.  Never thought I would answer in that way.  Learned something about myself.  One of many steps toward the new/old me.
