Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Creativity is an addiction. Unplugged because we will always say
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.
So let's turn it into a tool. This is Arrow unplugged.
James not Way an amazing photographer. This man has found
a way to capture the darkest of times in the
most dangerous places. He says that he gives silent people

(00:21):
a place to be visible. The part of the story
that grabbed my heart the most was his drive to
reach into the silent people who are visible. It can't
be traced to certain groups or communities. We're surrounded by
silence caused by stories that some may relate with or
just set aside. James just happens to document the journeys.

(00:45):
His photographs are separate stories which we can all participate,
either by admitting our own silence or supporting the outreach
that can help create sound in another person's heart. Here's Arrow.
This is the Daily Mess, a chronological walk through an
everyday world. I am a daily writer. My goal every

(01:06):
day is to be a silent wolf. To be able
to look at life, to study it, to enjoy it,
to be grateful for it. Write a bunch of stuff
down and then we get to have a conversation. This
is the daily mess. How do we measure what's right
and what's wrong? Is it really based on what we
don't have but still want now? Research says it's based

(01:30):
on opinion. Morally, right requires fifty one percent majority knowing
the ethical values of right and wrong. Usually it's a
small voice inside our hearts that determines yeah, that's right,
or no, that's wrong. I can't help but wonder how
many inner voices are truly wrong? How many indictments does
a person have to receive before realizing, Yep, I was wrong.

(01:54):
That's not the case in today's world. It's become clear
that the more you're not right, the more popular you're becoming.
Like a Hollywood movie, the bad guy or girl is
always the cool hangout, the confidence to buck the system.
How can anybody be wrong if the inner voices it
as right? Accountability has been redefined? What is right? What

(02:18):
is wrong? Me? Doing these podcasts could be very wrong
because it's so not like radio. And I've spent my
entire life in radio since the age of fourteen, and
if you want to count my bedroom radio station, well
that started when I was about ten but is podcasting
wrong or right? Somebody asked me that question on Facebook
last night. They said, you're not in radio anymore. And

(02:40):
my comment back, and I'm kind of regretting it today,
is I said, in podcasting, I'm doing more than what
I ever did in radio. It just seems so small.
I'm enjoying where I am. Was that wrong to say?
Or was it right to say? What about the daily
walks that we take. I'm one of those people that
takes the bag with me when my dog does what

(03:00):
my dog does. I pick it up. Now it's alguy
and kind of yeah, you know, and it doesn't smell well.
Does my body say, dude, that's wrong, you don't do that?
And yet the right side of my mind goes, yeah, yeah,
you don't want to leave that for someone to step in. Now,
that would be wrong. How do you measure what is
right and wrong? In my daily writing? I keep a

(03:23):
d fraged journal, and the d frag journal is really
just me asking myself questions. There are many times that
I call myself out. I say, no, you're wrong. Well,
now it's going to affect my mindset, my mood swings.
Will I be depressed while I be happy, What is right?
What is wrong? And can we please work this out?
This is the reason why I created the d FRAG
Journal so I could figure out the true balance. Remember,

(03:47):
fifty one percent majority is required for morally right. But
is that right? Because what happens if they're wrong? I'm
errow and that's the daily mess.
