Living in today's world, I have no problem saying that I'm bipolar. And face it, we all are. Not in the sense that you may be thinking, but I have my own definition being "bipolar."  

According to the dizzy mind of Wendy, being bipolar means having to become someone else in order to flow within the boundaries that society places on you. For instance, I love my job. Really I do. But because of a dress code, I'm having to take out my nose and tongue ring and become a professional sales associate. Why must I do that? Wearing my jewelry doesn't make me perform my duties any differently from when I don't wear them. I guess they consider it a distraction but as long as the bling from my nose ring doesn't blind me as I mix someone's paint, it shouldn't make a difference. Let me be the inner rockstar I know I am! Which leads me to another definition of being bipolar ..

Now, I'm the type of person who enjoys all types of music. I listen to rap, rock, R&B, pop and other genres. I have friends of all ethnic backgrounds who may or may not have the same taste in music. I have found out that hanging with my friends gave me BRD (Bipolar Rhythm Disorder). Some friends listen to rock and don't care for rap, so I listen to rock. But I can turn around and listen to rap with my other friends who don't care for rock.  You know y'all do that too so don't front.

We're a society of people suffering from some sort of bipolar disorder. Be it pushing back our "ghetto" self while working in a professional setting or going out of our comfort zone to get results. If you aren't bipolar, seek help because you may be in denial. We all become someone else at some points in our lives. That's what makes life interesting.
