Today’s world is almost becoming full of indistinguishable clustered individuals and things. And it appears to commonly and forthwith shoot up and proliferate subservience among the twenty-first century civilization. Busy💎Sumo

This is not to inculpate globalization whatsoever. This is about us- not actually blaming ourselves-but to shatter those silly fears expeditiously because that is what I’ve realized and made me inscribe it here in order for you to read it, whether you disaccord this (perspicacious) matter or not, still, reader, it won’t change what I have enunciated!

This is predominantly caused by these social norms and formalities which are slightly changing and do come across as producing no immorality. Of course, the majority won’t comprehend that because it is extensively acknowledged and believed.

But the truth is, it does produce immorality (and confusion as well), it’s just that it is shushed and disregarded because it is quite a bit onerous to follow and implement in the eyes of the world.

People are terrified to be exposed to the real unique potentialities and values of their fucking own. We naively go along with the same rules and pursue the same shit (because it is commonly accepted and praised), the same path, including the same fucking behavior. Some of you might conclude that I’m a pessimist. No, you’re absolutely wrong. I don’t even rub shoulders with pessimists too.

Better to know what you are putting yourself into than to blindly follow because it is just a ‘good’ thing.

Most people are not where they want to be and/or enjoying their lives because someone (either their educators, parents, friends, or whoever the fuck told them) has directed and chosen the preferable ‘good’ thing for them to pursue and execute.

Only a few people are doing what they actually value, love, and enjoy. The rest are just doing what others have told them to do or what they ‘thought’ others will like.

Some competition for the most part fucking begins here, this is essentially caused by the fear of being different and unacknowledged by the masses. This is principally where the Dicomfortability Of Being Atypical commences. We all know that human beings are competitive by nature, including animals followed by statisticians and journalists.

Most of our fucking dreams generate scariness to us and appear to be roughly impossible to accomplish which then makes us shift and do what our fucking peers and superstars did and/or do because it is easily achievable and worked well for them. So do we.

This also creates and escalates what I would like to call the Cycle of Indifference. What happens ultimately? We almost all end up behaving and doing the same shit and pretending to be different because we don’t really enjoy what we are doing but want to be exceptional.

We trap and encircle our fucking selves around this cycle, some of us for a short duration and some for a long one and/or forever until we fucking die.

Most individuals are uncomfortable with being different, which means they give too much fucks about other people’s opinions. What I’ve recently discerned is that some people don’t appreciate that I’ve changed. And indisputably most people literally don’t give a fuck!

To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson.

So, why don’t you get your butt off the fucking couch and roll up your sleeves and do whatever the fuck you want and enjoy doing on this Sol III (Earth)? Just asking, ask yourself too.

Let me know what are you thinking and write it down in the comments below. Thank you for reading. I appreciate your support.

Fear and doubt never produced any outcomes ever since I was here on this planet.
