We humans think that the more one has e better off they must be. That if they have the best phone, house, skate board, girlfriend, you must have reached your goal in life cause you have everything. But underlying his wonderful things does he go to sleep at night with a sense of peace, humble happiness? The value in material has gone up for most people, being the most fashionable of your friends will not help you up the ladder of appreciation because they probably have just as much as you. It must be lust and greed and maybe even pride. I'm not one for religion however its values in a person and their, 'sins' is something I agree with, that lust, greed and price kill a man faster than a gun ever could. Pulling not his physical self into death but his soul, esteem and worth. If one has 'a heart of gold' then the term makes sense to me that the worth that person has is from within them.
How long will Prada bags last compared to parades with family? Or Gucci heels to bonfires with friends? I make it sound so obvious but most people read this, agree with my philosophy and act against it not out of hypocrisy but because they don't know better. Because the same force that brought them to buy the name brand purse or shoes is the same thing that brought them to close their mouths and keep their personality and heart locked up. I blame society's 'order'. People have to act in a certain way when outside of their homes. Have a certain poise, posture and presence. They have to be able to keep within the social standards or they have no worth. I blame this with a wrath, I see the flaws of society and speak against them but there is nothing to fix. For all the world can see, there's nothing wrong. There are no laws broken. Hearts though. Hearts are crumbled and thats why I hate these standards we must not fight. Because someone has a birthmark on their face, or likes the same gender, or just plain loves her dog then they are labled as weird and odd, to be cast away.
But of you look at history, it was weird, strange, odd, remarkable people who changed our world for the better. Lincoln went against slavery and was killed for it, Suffragettes went against unfair treatment of woman and got locked up for it. I am a very weird person but I don't think I should be punished for seeing the world at a different angle, wanting more out of it and more of the reality in people. Nothing made me this way. I might suffer but this sick society needs a wake up call and I shall give it one. Values have been lost to the social standards. I will spread my philosophy and wisdom and hope from the bottom of my heart it sparks fire in peoples hearts and they fight with me. What I fight for? Acceptance.
