Facing down the expectations of society can be a tough call for many of the more disadvantaged.
It is easier not to even try to appreciate the extra difficulties that many face on a day to day basis through prejudice, ignorance or the feverish desire for fame, fashion and vanity.
I talk of those ostracised by bullying or politics or any other thinly veiled arrogance that represents human expectations.
This diary is not a confessional but I am going to offer you this insight into my soul as I too have been on the receiving end of being marginalised from society. I have peered through a chink in the window and felt the searing heat of the glowing rod of human pity.
Anyone who has actually seen me get some dust behind my contact lens, have to take it out, lick it and put it back in will know something of the prejudice I have faced down.
Should those that see me fear me or throw me change ?
Only they can decide that for themselves.
