Lost Voices

Why are we here?

 It is simple question that many of us find ourselves contemplating from time to time; you know when things just aren’t going right, your girlfriend just dumped you and you got fired from your job or you are just feeling philosophical. The answer is not so simple, not to be to cliché but as Forest Gump would put it, “Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get inside” then again, in today’s world we would because we have those little pictures underneath the tops of the boxes to spoil the surprise. It is like most things today, people have lost the fabrication of uniqueness and style. We were all put on this earth to learn from each other and prosper, not to prey on the indifferent or the minority. People have become so egotistical that, purity has become a rarity. Judgments are premade and social standing is all that matters. I say fuck them, do what you love no matter how off the dirt path it is, who cares if you don’t have the fancy car, or the loaded bank account at least you can say you are truly happy and are not stuck wishing you had done something different with your life. The truth is the people with the big houses and fancy cars are just trying to compensate for their lack of originality, trying to fill the void of doing something that they can just “deal” with instead of love. The problem with that is, is that money does not buy happiness. A pure soul, a free mind and the thrill of passion is what drives us as human beings. Not doing what you are most passionate about is like telling the prom queen from high school you didn’t want to date her because she is not hot enough and then getting bitch slapped by your buddy later for being a complete idiot. Social stature and the illusion of “fitting in” is all just a myth that society created to feel safe. Safe from the confines of any darkness that may be lurking in this world, but wait... The problem with that is, is that truth lies in that darkness, in the crevasse and cracks left from the herd. Each crack is a blank space that has been forgotten a blip on the radar that the government, media and society white out, for the so called best interests of the people. A misinformed public is a non threatening being, but a well informed public well...That creates war, and gives way to the so called “radical” ideas that in most cases are completely competent and sane. The peoples voice seldom but fierce, can either tame the fire or ignite its spheres.
