I Come From
by Aaron Best
I come from depression
I come from rage
I come from anger
I come from hate
I come from exclusion
I come from fighting
I come from not fitting in
I come from crime
I come from jail time
I come from psych wards
I come from expulsion
I come from non-public schools
I come from fighting
I come from risk
I come from having nothing to lose
I come from having no friends
I come from adoption
I come from anti-socialness
I come from socially awkwardness
I come from survival
I come from living in lies
I come from being past the point of no return
I come from f— society
I come from pro-anarchy
I come from atheism
I come from fading moral codes
I dome from you start it, I end it
I come from not giving a f—
I come from insanity
I come from darkness
And this is all that makes me

“Here’s the thing about The Good Men Project. We are trying to create big, sweeping, societal changes—–overturn stereotypes, eliminate racism, sexism, homophobia, be a positive force for good for things like education reform and the environment. And we’re also giving individuals the tools they need to make individual change—-with their own relationships, with the way they parent, with their ability to be more conscious, more mindful, and more insightful. For some people, that could get overwhelming. But for those of us here at The Good Men Project, it is not overwhelming. It is simply something we do—–every day. We do it with teamwork, with compassion, with an understanding of systems and how they work, and with shared insights from a diversity of viewpoints.” —– Lisa Hickey, Publisher of The Good Men Project and CEO of Good Men Media Inc.
