To be or NOT to be?
10.18.04 (2:38 am)   [edit]

good day world!


Finally found somewhere I can place a piece of mind. To be or not to be?, a famous line from Shakespeare, but is there more to this saying? Growing up from adolescence to manhood, I often plague by this question. To be myself or not to be myself sounds foolish eh? But it is all true; this is what society does and still doing to us all. Society dictates to us who we should be and not appreciate who we really are. Society togeth er with "media" has raised us as clones. Telling us what is acceptable and fashionable, society has molded us to its pleasure and away from who we really are. Society can judge us and even persecute us. The society that man created is now controlling him. How awfully sad.


We often become victims of society without knowing it, giving us subtle distractions thru media. Slowly we are drawn away from who we are and to “what” we should be. We strives so much so society to accept us. Even to the point of sacrificing our own identity. But have we asked ourselves, “Does society actually cares for us?” Trying to please people by means of our own demise does not sound logical to me.


We have become clones, walking this world and not living in it. Everyday we are lose ourselves more and more, until we, cannot even recognize ourselves. We have been mislead by society what would bring us joy and meaning in life. It has given us false values as well as false gods. Our lives have centered on FAME, MONEY, POWER and SEX. Everyday our hunger for these foolish things grow. One day we will be consumed by them and lose who we are. Then, our life will be one big confusion and disappointment, for we will always try to attain the unattainable.


To be or not to be? I ask that myself everyday. And I do have a choice. I have learned to see society for what it is. It is man made. And as a man, and having made it has little power over me. For the creation cannot be more powerful than the creator.


But there is still hope for our society. There are those still who are honest to themselves, who are trying with full effort to change our paganistic society. These are the people who have found happiness within themselves. But most important of all they have found meaning in their worthlessness thru the joy that GOD gives them.


Will you be yourself? nor NOT?


daxx!
