My name is Dawn Emerson. Well, to be honest that is a lie. Dawn Emerson is my alias -- I love the name Emerson. It has a sort of regal ring to it; if I ever have a daughter, I will name her Emerson. I have created this name out of the fact that if, by some crazy chance, someone somewhere who knows me reads this that they will be fooled enough to not know it's me. You may wonder - why am I worried about my identity?
It's not as though what I am writing in this blog is so secretive that is demands a pseudonym. But this blog is about baring my soul; exposing a part of me that I don't share with people in my life. However, I will say that if you do know me, you will figure it out anyway. I have no intention of hiding who I am, except for my name. Everything else written in this blog will be utterly truthful, and painfully honest. So much so, that I have vowed to myself that I will not re-read any blogs I post, nor will I delete a single one of them. Because I know - if I re-read some of what I will be writing in this, I will delete it immediately as a means to try and deny how I feel, who I am, and the truth about the society we live in...
Yes, sometimes I will rant and sometimes I will rave. But the one thing to remember while you read it is that it is all true. Every bit of it. My life, my friends, who I am, and the happenings of my life is simply a reflection of our American society and the reality in which we live. And, let's be honest, it's often times unsettling. I mean, who wants to admit who they really are and the society they live in when the society they live in and how they really are is shallow, self-absorbed, greedy, lustful and lacks proper insight? ....
