Dare to be. Dare to be more than the confines of thine mind. Thinking beyond the minimal scope of what has already been written is a feat few take on. The likes of Salvador Dali, Audrey Lorde, Donyale Luna and Andre J. resound with me because they weathered the cost of being different. Eccentric, weird, odd, crazy --- words used to describe those who fearlessly dare to be. But fortunately for me I can appreciate these characters who are truly playing the character of themselves, as opposed to the role of normal, same, mundane, homogenous. Their fearlessness stops me in my tracks each moment I feel as though I am too far to the left while everyone peers at me with perplexity from the far "right".
