I recently received a disturbing email (paraphrased below) that warned us all about the government infiltrating our private lives based upon the searches we make on Internet search-engines.  And yet what bothered me about the mail was not our government’s intervention into our private lives, but rather our growing obsession with fear; our growing desire to hide who we are choosing to be.

And so I ask:  If there are behaviors & beliefs you are wanting to keep private, is the solution really to find a better way of keeping them secret?

Maybe it’s time for a different approach to Big Brother.  Maybe it’s time to stop hiding who we are and what we do.  Maybe it’s time to either change the behaviors we are ashamed of, or simply stop being ashamed of them!
