Open Eyes.........Closed Minds!!!!!

It has often been said that only God can judge us. However, society didn't seem to get this message. They have taken upon themselves to decide right from wrong. What constitues immoral acts? They have decided to hang on to the old ways of thinking, while the world around them is ever changing.
You would think that in this day and age, the past ideas and ways of thingking would have changed. That people would begin to accept the change, possibly even embrace it. They would stop looking at the outward apperance of a person and look at the personality.
I, personally, experience this on a daily basis. People look at me and the first thing the see is my body art. Then the next thing through their minds is criminal, thug, or outlaw. A non-comformist, if you will. And while i do like to be my own person, I also obey the laws that every other citizen obeys. I understand the mystique behind body art. I know, that at one time, the only people who had body art were outlaws, sailors and freaks. But, come on, this is the 21st century. Body art is mainstream now. I hardly know anyone who doesn't have at least one.
And it only gets worse when they discover I am a part of an adult community that caters to the pornographic nature. That is when the old prejudices moves into high gear. I have heard all the things that can be said about it. How do I answer them? I tell them that I am doing what I want to do. That I enjoy doing it. That is a lifestyle that I enjoy. That I am not judging them for being a buzzkill.
I have learned a suprising fact though. Most of the people who are condeming me for what I do are doing it behind closed doors. But because I have the self-esteem and confidence to do it for all to see, I am going to Hell. Good, that means all that other bad stuff I did doesn't matter.
In closing, I say this. Pull your heads outta your backsides and say hello to the future. Wheter you like it or not, we are going to be who we want to be. You or noone else will change that. We are living our lives on our terms, with no regrets. It is a new world and a new century. So let go of the past and step into the present with us. You might find you like it here.
