The Necessary Unnecessary

We, or you, were the white spaces between the words that make up the stories. Invisible, never noticed, taken for granted but necessary. We, or you, sorted the jumble of letters into words. We, or you, were part of the story but had no meaning inside it. Us, we, or you, are, the necessary unnecessaries.

I want to do something like oitnb, and maybe if I write this here then I might actually do it. I don't mean create or be part of an award winning show per se, I mean be able to create the effect (even if it's on a smaller scale) that this show has. Giving people hope, yet forcing people to despair and open their eyes to the atrocities that, becuase they don't happen to us, we care a lot less about. I want to do something, anything, that gives people a platform becuase of talent not looks, and allows these people to use their platform to speak their own voice and mind, not one fed to them by bullshit pop media and mass hysteria. Something that isn't afraid to stand out, be different, be the initiative- be the change. I want to do something with my life that means something for other people, to make this world a slightly less shitty place, to bring hope into the darkness and awareness into the ignorance. I want to do something like Orange Is The New Black has done.
