Be Yourself Because Everyone Else Is Already Taken? WHAT?

The one thing I know about the man race expressly is the fact that we're all fake. Fake, no matter what the repertoire. We're shameless hypocrites- every one of us. What amuses me is that despite this, we all manage to go about it as well as see this quality as a fault in others. Sometimes, this fake identity is the only one visible and causes the pain.

I dream of a world where there won't be any of these desperate forays at being what we call 'cool'. Acting tough, dressing up, acting in a certain manner in order to attract attention, remembering someone only when they're useful or you're in pain, celebrating dumb victories of Gods we don't even have real proof for, acting responsible, changing who you are for someone else's convenience. There's a list that lasts an eternity. 

We, humans, should be declared as the dumbest species to exist. We say good-bye  when we actually want to see them again. We cause ourselves pain thinking it is selfless or is relieving mother of a  burden, when all we're doing is burden them further. 

We scream. We laugh. We cry. We cringe. We judge. We destroy.

All for what? Some prize at the end of it? What is the prize? Attention? Love? Satisfaction? 

Whatever it is, nothing changes how none f it ever lasts.

We use different words to call ourselves fake. 'Developed,' we say. 'Intelligent,' we say. 'Cool,' we say. 'And what is not us, is obsolete,' we say. 'Everyone is unique here,' we say. But tell me, if everyone is unique then isn't the quality of being unique non-unique? 

All we do is vie with each other, showing each other how much 'cooler' we are. Our wishes reach the social media before the actual person. We care more about the number of posts on Instagram  one has than the number of good deeds one has done. We feel hurt when someone doesn't respond to our texts but ignore it when we see a loved one changing for the sake of social media. We call ourselves eco-friendly when we don't even know the meaning of 'friendly' anymore. THIS ERA IS SHIT. 

Crime is in plethora. We're connoisseurs at breaking hearts and promises. Wealth is the path to health. Knowledge is monetary. Thinking becomes frivolous. Feelings are overpowering our critical side. Looks are the primary medium of judgements. 

CAN WE REALLY CALL THIS A WORLD WORTH LIVING IN ANYMORE?
