Content

In every play there is a protagonist, an antagonist and a notion. Each story sells an idea directly or indirectly; in hope. Some lack knowledge but have emotion, some lack emotion but have knowledge. Some share sense, some share feelings. Like it or not the story stands to gain because when it is told it becomes richer. Whether by embellishments or by plain strings, it remains told and stays in our hearts and active and subconscious minds teaching us or reminding us of something. And it always achieves its purpose.
Good stories ennoble us, bad stories wisen us and ugly ones caution us.
Every action is a story; every song, every day, every life is a story of sorts. The content depends on the players. We live, we learn, many stories are being told at once. These stories define our exposure and by extension (our) reality. And these days the stories we hear and see seem to be in a collaboration to drive discretion out of doors. Reality's lines are being blurred by stories that downplay moral intelligence. There is almost no content on the mainstream media dedicated to make strong men of little ones (literally and figuratively).
We must collectively pick the gauntlet to create such content that sells value and truth; such stories whose words and actions are not discordant. Good things are not just picked randomly. The serious business of creating good and lasting content must be pursued with passion. Don't just complain when you see bad stuff, create your version and make it good - no, better.
