When A Writer Reveals A Personal Aspect

Some personal aspects of a writer is most difficult to conceal. For instance revealing my ethnicity was never a point I wanted to reveal but there I was on the air on the radio speaking about issues of the day's events involving racial differences and civil rights of the American people a very big subject of discussion nowadays in the news and to put it mildly we cannot escape this topic of discussion. The biggest act of violence in this country of America involved the American people in a civil war where the fatality rate was the largest of all American wars a time when my great grandfather came to this golden state of opportunity not so much to fight in that civil war but to mine for gold in the California Gold Rush Era. Sorry I am evading the main topic I wished to present and that is the story I rarely speak about to anybody because it is a very personal story of just another life no one should care about. To cut to the chase mind you is that when I was a baby I was attacked and mutilated and I lived through all my childhood with a mutilated nose not to mention my ethnicity which was under attack by many American citizens because as a race of people trying to make a living in America we were known as the Chinese originating from a huge country namely China then a poor and very impoverished nation receiving economic aid from America. It was a third world country living in the dark ages where it was far removed from the Industrialization already enjoyed in the good old USA and I was a target in America like my father was where people we didn't even know would hurl stones and derogatory words at us when we least expected such an attack. My mother herself attacked me and left my nose mutilated and it took me some fifty years later to uncover the cover up but I found the truth from a relative who stated he was there at the time of the attack. It was his assumption that I had known who attacked me but I was totally ignorant that it was my own mother who did this to me. Can I assume now that I ruined my mother's chances to ever consider running for a serious political office because I write and say the truth so help me God? After all it was Norman Mailer the man I spoke to over the air on the Ronn Owens show about his books which had made him one of the most foremost and famous writers of all time but his chances he admitted were ruined when he admitted he stabbed his wife in the breasts with a pen knife. What then were his chances of running successfully for the Presidency of The United States of America? I do believe in separation from the church and state but this I do say about my mother she did not know what she was doing as Jesus said on the cross to his father that he should forgive his tormentors for they know not what they do. Again I do not pretend to be a professional writer I only write blogs and write ads sometimes when I want to sell my car. To date no one has paid me to write anything and thus far this is my choice.
