Screwed Up Society

Were screwed up. We all know it, we all are in our own weird way. We all have our own little things that make us different and strange in our own way. Some of them may be obvious, others hidden deep inside our personality and emotions. Some of us hide them, other show them off for the world to see. Thing is if you want people to see it or not society doesn't want to. I think we should let people see us but the rules say we shouldn't.

That what is screwed up about us as a whole today. We made a norm and now everyone has to stick to the norm. I appreciate the people who go outside the lines and ignore what the rest of us say, but the fact is they will be outlawed. It's just the way things go. It's sad but i speak the truth and it's still sad but you know I'm right on this point. We all have things hidden from view because were so afraid that we will no longer fit in between the lines.

It's so stupid when you think about it. That our lives are governed by something or someone other then us. Society forms what we turn into, what we think, and what we do. Let me give you and example: swear words. Every swear word has a real meaning, but someone at sometime decided that all of sudden that word was unfit to be said. And that idea slid into others, spreading like a disease, infecting more and more of us until the word became socially unaccepted. It's so sad that something like that can happen.

If you don't believe what I'm saying listen to this. The bible shows us that these words were once accepted. In fact the bible actually uses the words, shit, bastard, and ass. To further my point here are the definitions of each word as written by the Merriam-Webster dictionary that sits in my house.

Ass- African mammal (East asinus) that is the ancestor of the donkey
Bastard- an illegitimate child( meaning a child born from two unmarried parents.)
Bitch- the female of the dog or some other carnivorous mammals
Fuck- to express anger, contempt, or disgust
Shit- Human feces or a worthless, offensive, or detestable person

See what i mean, they all have real meanings. They all were used in daily language like anything else. But society managed to change them and now we are their next victims. Society picks at us and tries to dig it's ideals into our heads. This is right, this is wrong, you can say this, not that. What the hell happened to our freedoms. I don't have the freedom to think how i want to, because when i do and i say it, I'm shunned, thrown out, and forced to keep silent. People say we shouldn't have our full rights of freedom, we don't know how to use it, we don't know the boundaries. Well to everyone out there that thinks that I, as a person have to stay were they can see and hear me and tell me whats right or wrong, SHUT THE HELL UP.

I am a person and i will express myself as i see fit to do. And until i start threatening you and pressing my viewpoints onto you i am free to do so. As i see it, my constitutional rights are violated. I am told what I am not allowed to say and do when i am young. See people press their ideas on us when we are young and we don't know it, and we begin to follow what they show us because we don't know any better. That's infringing my right to believe and think what i want to, before i can even stop you.

So as i close i ask you now, as a group of young people who can shape the future. To not accept what society throws in our face. Lets express ourselves, let's swear, after all, there only words that have been banned by someone that decided that they needed too. Your not going to hell for it. I'm pretty sure the bible never said, "Don't say Ass, Shit, Bastard, Bitch, or Fuck." So please let your voice be heard above the noise that is society and please tell me of what you think we can do to change this problem in our lives.

Just Think About It,
