Let's touch on this picture for a minute. I took this while out goofing around a few months ago, and it has become one of my very most favorite pictures ever taken. I absolutely love it. That is all :)
With the situation that has evolved down at UW, I have seen, once again, how bias the media has been. The headlines read almost the same every time, "Liberal College Blogger Faked Rape Threat From Conservative Student." This poses a question for me, however, as a consumer of information. What evidence has been presented against this student that proves that she did it. We as consumers know absolutely nothing about what has been said or done. The media has basically convicted this student, although they are not stating what evidence has been provided against her. So, how do we know that she did or didn't do it. She hasn't gone to court. In the situation where you are being accused of a crime, you would appreciate to be presumed innocent until you are proven guilty. Why can't we give this person the same respect? I am not a liberal. I am far from it, but this is not a case of politics in my mind. This is a case of the media jumping on a story when there...
Why are you so special to me? I can't seem to find the answer to. I guess I know the answer to that, I am just looking for something on why you care about me. You treat me as if I am a better person than I see myself as being. You make me feel so happy. You encourage me, and you inspire me. You make me feel like I am a good person. You don't judge me. How can you do this? In a world where everyone is so critical of me, and where everyone is so mean, you treat me like I am a person. You seem to recognize that I want respect. You treat me like a person should be treated. But why? I have all these labels, engraved into my own soul, in my heart, and in my mind. Worthless, Stalker, Garbage. But you make those labels go away. You bring me to a higher place. How? Why? I have spent many hours wondering these things, contemplating what the logical solution is, and I have come up with nothing. I almost would say that the way you treat me makes you special from everyone else....
