There are certain things that are obviously problems and should be topics of conversation that aren't.
If you want to uncover problems you don't know about, take a few moments and look closely at the areas you haven't examined for a while. I guarantee you problems will be there.
My voice was not heard, the questions were not asked that I wanted to see asked.
And that is how Goodwin problems were always fixed. Fix them on the surface but don't go to the root, always ignoring the elephant in the room. I think that morning was when I realized I'd grown up with an elephant in every room of my life. It was practically our family pet.
Just because something is unspoken doesn't mean that it disappears.
If you don't think about or deal with an issue, it gets bigger.
Excluding certain problems from the political debate by making it a crime to discuss them won't lead to the disappearance of these concerns, let alone contribute to a solution.
I think it's the things we don't talk about that make us old before out time.
There are a lot of issues that I hope we deal with at some point that we haven't up to now, for various reasons. Some technical, and some more political.
My biggest worry is that sometimes you know the problem, but you don't do anything about it until it gets too big to be fixed.
The plays raise issues that are ignored in other forums.
Lets not push it under the rug, or push it to the side because, no matter what, it's going to keep coming up. You know, if you never deal with that dirt up under the carpet, it's going to get larger and larger, and it's going to keep coming up.
If there is a problem, and you don't say anything about it, it's like a cancer and it becomes bigger.
