speech pieces

I wish that someone had noticed me, when I was that age, and told me that I wasn't bad for what I thought then. I wish that someone had said, you know, I've been watching you, and I just want to let you know that there are safer ways to go out and find what you're looking for. There are other people who can help you take care of your needs, and there are ways to make sure that it's safe to do. Now, people in general aren't really very smart. No offense you guys. But young people can be downright stupid sometimes. Especially young women. Girls can do some stupid, stupid stuff when they think they found someone who will love and accept them. Or even just when they want to go to a party, ... Jessi. I know several girls who never even had second thought about meeting new people alone. They hopped in the car with a stranger to ride an hour away, and didn't even know the name of the town they were going to, much less ask someone to call and check in on them every hour, two hours, or even once the whole time they were there!

These people who are new to the lifestyle need someone to guide and mentor them, even if it's just to say "hey, you know to have someone call you to check in and make sure everything is alright every couple hours when you're alone with someone new, right?" or "Hey... let me go with you to meet this new person, I've never heard of them before." "have you checked this person's references? I've never heard of them, and I know most of the people in this area. Maybe you shouldn't go meet them alone."

In my perfect vision of the community, every new person to the community would have a mentor within a week. You want unity? Start by having the experienced people reach out to the newbies.

Start mentoring someone who needs it. You might save their life.




fuck. I sound so fucking stupid.


back to bed. I had to get up cuz I was having more speech ending stuff go through my head when all I really want is a nap.
