The English language has been hijacked! “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” (Inigo Montoya – the Princess Bride)
What if the simple meaning of the ‘#metoo’ hashtag movement stretched beyond denouncing sexual harassment &/or assault? There are a lot of hurts in this crazy world of ours. What if ‘me too’ meant ‘I also’.
‘I also feel alone in a crowd.’
‘I also wake up at 4 a.m. fueled by anxiety.’
‘I also feel misunderstood.’
‘I also am afraid of spiders.’
`I also feel deeply sad sometimes.`
`I also want to auction off my children to the first bidder.`
`I also feel `less than`.`
`I also hate onions.`
`I also feel like I`m doing it wrong.`
`I also think putting on jeans fresh out of the dryer should count as my workout for the day.`
#metoo #ialso — you are not alone.
What are some of your #ialso struggles?
