So running on from that last blog post (dont read it, it’s a mess and doesn’t make a lot of sense) boredom is pretty damn similar to depression. So expression must be fun right? But expression is scary and vunerable, depression is a defensive thing right? Kids are crazy expressive and we call them vulnerable people, and have you ever tried to convince a depressed person to change their opinion on something? Mission impossible (because changing is scary and they don’t want to do it even if it might mean becoming happier).
So how best to make expression safe? How best to make change less scary? Trust I assume. How do you build trust? In small steps. Niave blind trust is ill advised, your eyes must always be open to what’s going on, otherwise someone might pull wool over you.
More to come.
hmm appears i’ve missed a step out here!
