Shower Epiphany: Criminal ceremony and Unearned Respect

I'm not one to revel in ceremony since most ceremony is used by charlatans and crooks to hide their intentions. Saying this, I do not buy into the concept of titles or any type of honor bound positions, especially if they're handed out at birth. I do not respect fathers/mothers, brothers/sister, aunts/uncles, because blood ties us in. I have relatives who are in all ways assholes and I do not bite my lip or hold my tongue in keeping reserve. I call it my duty to call people out in their bullshit as much as I hope others would for me. So if I'm wrong, I'll take that moment to ponder if I am and the such, but this is not possible without someone telling me.

In that, I can not tell you how much I despise yes-men/women. If someone is wrong they're wrong. I rather not hold my tongue to save any face especially if someone is holding their word as gospel. I do not buy into that automatic head bow or respect given. Respect is earned and fought for. You may be a blank slate when meeting me but I will always hold your words and actions to a judging eye and see who you are since most people who declare themselves as one thing usually are not.

In saying this, if you do not agree you can fuck yourself. I've had a life time of people's deception and lies when most of it can be removed with a simple admittance of "I'm not sure". So no, you are not a mother simply because you give birth, but by the end results and methods you take to raise a child to be independent and socially responsible, not someone who is going to be dependent on your word and action. That is the worst kind of cruelty and I have danced many a dance on certain individuals deaths since that was the only method of freeing people mentally shackled to a human being even until death and sadly sometimes afterwards.

Titles are worthless. Respect is earned. Nothing is a given.
