I know that it has been awhile since I have blogged, as I have been busy. Sort of anyway. So far my days have consisted of job searching, and taking care of my daughter. I have come to accept the fact that my daughter is very easily amused by some things and very easily bored with others. She is in fact a miniature version of myself down to the t. Easily distracted, easily frustrated, easily forgiving, and just as lazy at times. Every day we watch the same movie over and over again until I feel like smashing my head against a wall. There are only so many times you can watch Elmo in Grouchland before you want to throw up. I know I’m rambling, but I promise I am getting to my point. Elmo in Grouchland is very much a toddler movie, with some exceptions. There is underlying adult humor, which you won’t pick up if you are under the age of 15. This reminds me of a discussion I had a few days ago about how sick and perverted old man Disney was. For example, the certain artifact you can find on the original cover of The Little Mermaid. Perception can be defined by age, but not just age. It can be defined by gender, race, sexual preference, area you grew up in, and also spiritual/moral beliefs. I had a discussion with another friend Kwapi (amazing writer and more- please check out his stuff- Twitter @kwapiv or http://www.facebook/kwapivengesayi), about perception of those with different backgrounds. So I have a question for readers: Is there an object (movie, book, experience, person, etc) that you look at differently now than you have in the past? What changed your perception? Was it age, your surroundings, friends, religious beliefs, etc? Leave me some comments/questions!
