"EX"-ing Them Out

I figure to properly act as a civilian (While not being controlled by corporate headings) you must take advantage of something called freedom. We seem to hold it but do we take advantage of it? When we learn to harness the true understanding of what freedom truely is, then it would only better us to operate. Now this goes beyond the amendings of freedom of speech and all that good stuff. While that stuff is very much inclusive, we need to focus on something I like to call "EX"ing. To EX something out is simply to express and exhaust oneself through a series of creative as well as constructive ways. So you can say that you are exhausting on expressing. The EX stands for both express and exhaust, so you can say I did both when I came up with the word. I'm expressing it by writing (typing) it down, as well as exhausting it with the capital letters.

To EX is to go for more than just the two words that I made it represent. What I'm saying is simply take what it is you have and give it your all. Whether it be a talent or ability you have that you wish to perfect and nourish. Or you can just have an accomplishment in which you strive to reach. When you "EX" it out, you are working to reach it. Let's take for example something I may cling to. I'll choose something simple so that you may get the point. Hmm, I am a fan of Nintendo so, suppose someone had in their possession a spanking brand new Nintendo Wii. It looks beautiful when I see it. But wait, it's not mine. No, it belongs to the person who holds it. Now this person happens to come up to me and say something like...

"Rob, I got this new Wii man. I'll let you have it if you can get it from me. You can use any method possible."

Now with him saying that, I feel most people would try to go for it physically and what not. Y'know, strip it from their little fingers. But I want to do something a bit more creative. I mean because stealing can be so cliche, that you would want to do something new. So with me being the way I am, I might try to convince them to hand it over. I can step up and give reasoning as to why I do qualify to hold possession of the Nintendo Wii. The reason being for that is, that Nintendo with their wonderous child-like ways make a marvelous contribution to myself as it can keep me occupied. I can say something along the lines of that or, I can say something completely different. But instead of a theory that convinces, I can do a trade with them. It probably won't be another item but instead I will give them a little show. And it would be a show to remember too. I mean just imagine me, putting up a little small poetry show for the person. Something that'll grab their attention. Now they can take that poem that I write and keep it, having themselves a nice time reading, while I marvel at the Nintendo Wii. And that my friends is just a simple demonstration of what "EX"-ing is. So go ahead and EX the same old same olds out. Try something new that you can express and exhaust.
