I think it’s cool that someone like Royster also agrees with
sharing information. It’s kind of
unfortunate that certain social constructions tend to make writing so political
and bureaucratic; and, because language is intrinsic to one’s identity, there’s
always some sort of fear or concern of how we affect others as well as their
reaction towards us. However,
if we continue to concern ourselves with notions of helping one another, not
just because it’s the moral thing to do, but for the sake of humanity rather
than running off the deep end wishing to solely self-persevere,
then we as humans would become active in promoting success for everyone by “operating
with honor, respect, and reasonable codes of conduct” (33-4). Some of this seems rather cliché, but better to say something than nothing at all.
This is a cool segue way into the second subject – speaking
with global intent. Again, this is
idealistic, but I’ve often tried to, at the very least, gear my rationale on any
subject with a more universal approach to satisfy a wide audience. And, by doing so often results in using more
than one of my authentic “surface voices”.
Whatever is chosen, the thing that matters most is the rationale -
whether in a formal or an informal language or tone - is understood by many as possible;
however, the problem with this ideal is that often cultural terms become
conflated and fused result in loss of distinction or significance in the
message itself. Yet, as a scholar of
human nature I strive to think such a feat is plausible and entirely incredible
to perform.
