In grade-4 elementary school.. I was a natural.. and the teacher saw it too...
The whole class was delegated to something, on the wall to wall mural across the full width of the blackboard...
...Some were making paper trees, and paper grasses and birds... Others were drawing ferries and mythical creatures...
The tech sent me to the middle of the blackboard, drawing hearts...
...After half a dozen hearts quite well drawn on the board, by the trees.. teach approached: "Those are beautiful hearts there donnie"...
"Yep!.. I'm drawing them from my soul"...
"OH!.. uHh..Well.. uhm?.. What are the second holes on the points of your hearts?.."
"I don't know.. They're just there"...
Ohh.. That would be a little too much for the tender young minds here in this room, for now... Would it affect your quality if you were to leave off the second tip, and just make your beautiful hearts with all only single-points?!.."
"OK"... and I erased all the pussies of my heart drawings...

I wonders how many others of you had their "naturalness" squashed in elementary school..?
And I'm wondering what there is to do to repair us..?
It's not so much as they damaged my spirit.. It's just that they hit so hard, and often, that I was forced to hide my spirit deep inside, where they could never hurt that precious life-foundation of mine.. for it being so well hidden in me, in thought processing areas they could never hope to access in their whole lifetimes...
Trouble is that it shrinks a spirit, to be in compression so long, and so safe...
But a concentrated spirit is an operating mind....
They fear the mind... is why they try to close all those they find open...
In other words, "Thee Inquisition".. is live and well, in democracy...
I ask brilliant shrinks.. and it seems they all suffer from the same "ailment".. and none of them have the slightest clue how to solve it.. is pretty-much why they're all shrinks...
And it seems that all six-bil of you have each their own similar ailment... as if we are all got a little cut and scar from something mean that happened to us back then...
Instead, we cover it up, and try to forget it... But it sometimes bubbles forth, to pester you a little more... and the fight is on, again... You against you... till some semblance of reality's sanity catches your attention... recovering you from hell, yet another inner rescue...
I suppose the solution is the answer, to "How do you restore a damaged, or hiding, spirit..?"
I suppose the lucky ones didn't have their spirits attacked by the culture.. to force us to fit in.. cuz they were born into groups that already fitted-in... They had no struggles.. save for their frequent bouts of constipation and squirtz, from every port...
