THE OBSERVATION BOOTH
OP / ED & PHOTO CREDITS: ANDREA DIALECT
Hey you, are you reading this? Just kidding, lol. I say that to say this. Words are all around us, and these messages that hide in plain sight can be utilized any way you’d like on our journey into that thing we call the life of you, me, us.
You get the picture. Do you know that there are many underlying messages in wordplay that say something more than what they say?
This is a Heads-up: WE MUST LEARN TO READ AND TAKE IT NEXT LEVEL BY REALLY KNOWING HOW TO READ WHAT WAS READ! Luckily, we get to words any way we’d like. Meaning they can be used to build us up or tie ya down. Once again, use is at your discretion.
Now, with all that freedom we’ve got, the intelligent thing to do is make words even more beneficial; By making it enjoyable and by really playing with those texts as we play. Words can be a double entendre, a warning, inspiration, map, confirmation, etc.
Today, I will utilize imagery’s power to kick off focus. Now that I have your attention, What’s the meaning of the words, the pics, this article to you? Our individualized perception adds even more beauty to wordplay when it’s colored by our thoughts.
So let’s fund the mentality of others and our own by sharing those perspectives and start making what we read out there count out there!
Also, this is a “heads up.” We are embarking upon our “Help Us, Help Us challenge. This is an action call to the Village. Let’s paint those village squares with the Villagers. Please support our effort by taking up this challenge because we need your help. Let’s paint the town, Mocha by supporting our “Lend Your Image to Change” Project.
You can do that by sharing articles, telling a friend, attending the events, purchasing merch, sharing our social media page and content. Donations are also always welcomed when supporting those who have graciously “Lent Their Images To Change!” We, too, must do our part.
Also, if you know anyone who would be a great candidate for content, email me here at Local Talk or check me out at Andrea Dialect on Facebook, my Grinders Row Facebook Group page, or the L.I.T Models page. On Instagram my handle is mzdialect. Like, follow, share, and support our efforts.
This is our job, nobody else’s. We must paint our own narrative. Doing our part is what that “Power” we are always chitchatting about is all about!
