Ignorance and Society

To each person words can have different meanings depending on how much they know about it and the context it is used in. For example, in the media I see commercials about the prejudice word “retard” or known as the “r” word. When being pointed out I know that as a person I would like to be pointed out like one. A way not to do so would be pointing out my disability or trying to define me as a person in that way.I am not that “handicapped person” or “disabled guy”, I am Mason. Or if you don’t know my name I am also a man. For me having a disability has some insecurities. It doesn’t help to have complete strangers or anyone else describing us in that matter.

Changes

This year is slowly becoming more about making big changes in my life. Changes that will have an effect on my future. One of the major changes that I’m trying to complete is my career. My goal is to find something that will allow me to support my independence and make use of a savings account. This year I have made it a goal to read more. To try to absorb more knowledge. Another change that I would like to see this year would be going back to school. To further my skills and build onto my future career.
