Have you ever felt that being too honest was to your detriment?

I don’t know about you but I think that it can.
As most of you must know is that I suffer deeply from foot in mouth disease.
Lack of filters on my brain, mouth and fingers has gotten me in trouble quite often, and I wonder why at times?

Sure I know that sometimes what I say may not be what the world at large wants to hear, but it’s the truth when I say it!
Oh, sure there are times when my information is not quite right or probably just plain WRONG would be more accurate, but how would I know that until after I say it, hmm?
Fact checking is for paid professionals, not people like me, writing hackers, who just like to see the rate that they can produce a somewhat literate essayistic moderation of opinionated material!
WHAT?

By the by, has anyone but me noticed how prolific this stream of consciousness style of my writing has been? Yes, I go on, whether anyone cares to read it or not…got to count for something I would think, huh?
I mean I have rarely taken a night off, (except when hospitalized or very ill) and I think that I have been pretty much varied in topics, could it be a brain tumor? Not funny, it reminds of that movie Kindergarten Cop, (Circa 1990, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger before he was a gubernator and philanderer that got caught!) when the child said to the cop when cop said that the children were giving him a headache; “that maybe it’s a brain tumor?” Sure hope not! Damn headaches…though, not funny! (Again last night)
Or am I some sort of savant? Since I can remember things that I should not be able to…
Scaring me!

I do know when I was writing my novellas the joy of doing so had me writing, if I recall, ten thousand words a day, would you believe?
Yep, I would get up before dawn and it was as if I were possessed by a likable, no lovable writing genie that installed themselves into my body like a willing host.
Not quite an alien’s story, you know due to it being happy and not scary at all… oh all right a wee bit scary since no one wants foreign beings taking over their minds or even their bodies, but still for the good, not for the evil, right? LOL!
Imagination is a wonderful thing when it’s in your childlike brain working over time and as we grow into adulthood we are told to, ‘get real’, and be logical, or just told come on grow up, hmm? Sadly, then most of the performing/visual arts would not exist… something to think about, huh?
Actors have jestingly been called liars because that is what they do for a living, make you believe that they are someone else, and writers make up stories for you to believe too, hmm…
Maybe lying can be used for good?
Something for us all to think about…or not?

On those rather odd ideas from my compromised (Legally) drugged, but sleep deprived brain allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you kindly to count all your blessings and share those overages and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?

Which way will the war go?
