chapter seventy five: subcultural effects
life in the the world
in our world
is simple
we live simply by routine
it helps us keep track of what we do
and if we fall relative to time

but more often than not
we sigh out loud
saying "it's complicated, you wont understand"

but in real fact
it really is very simple..

it is our fear
the fear of being ridiculed
to be judged
to seem inadequate
that stops us from speaking plainly..

it is only natural to feel this fear..
we all do it
i do..

we judge others
over our own insignificance
when we trample upon the grieving souls of others,
our bestfreinds
our bretheren
our fathers and mothers
we feel superior
stronger
that we (seemingly) we smart enough to avoid the pit falls that the distressed had took..

time and again we choose to take the route set ahead for us by people we do not even acknowledge
we live the dreams of our elders
dreams that they alone could not undertake
for they lived life the way their parents would have wanted
and the vicious cycle goes..

the world today is set on the foundation of destructive yet necessary subcultures
living each day..
religiously by "the way"
to be accepted
to be considered "part of us"
to not be ostracised
alone and dejected..

yet each day
we strive to be an individual
to stand out among the crowd
to have our own voice
but time and again we break our promises of our mornings
we choose to return to "the way"
as it is always easier..

we simply choose to follow a set path
rather than find our own..
because that is what we are taught
what our parents, and their parents before them are thought..
it is the way the world operates..

we want that which isn't ours
but we are so afraid of letting go of what we already own
we want to have new ideas
but refuse to be labeled, a student
to be under the scrunity of one higher person

superior complexion
that is what we aim for isnt it??
to be a cut above the rest..

but why??
