Contestations

If everything happens for a reason then timing is a bitch. I get that I cannot control everything. Its perfectly normal and perfectly depressing. In the midst of living there are bouts of half-living. Only seeing life through half-opened eyes. The breaths you take are shallow, the steps you take are lazy. Your mind needs to be hot-wired when you wake up (at 3 pm), and you need to convince yourself that its okay that the water in the shower will start off cold.
While this may seem like you are living.... you aren't. We've been told since day one to get a job, buy a house, lease a car. Wear a suit, buy a television... all of this ends up making somebody else more rich, and therefore, more powerful. People have been brain-washed (yes, it is a touchy subject but we all have been indoctrinated) without realizing any of it.
I say don't give in. Sure its great to have an education, but education shouldn't revolve around or be ran like a business. Besides; who decided that you can only learn something substantial and worthwhile in the classroom or auditorium. Academia has failed many, and is the fleeting standard of expectation. That is all academia can provide. Expectations. Hopes, dreams, promises. Nothing real, of course.

In the end, when the human race must come down to a do-or-die decision, our Ivy League graduates aren't going to be put on a pedestal and questioned for their opinions, they'll being doing whatever it is everyone else is. Because they too, have been indoctrinated by the upper echelon of this global society. The New World Order is coming.



note: I've been watching way too many conspiracy documentaries....
