Originally I sat here, thinking, roughly for five to ten minutes about something to write about.
First, I thought, I would describe my last week, as it has been pretty revolutionary and is seemingly already having an impact on my life. Too personal, I thought; I don't think anyone would care.
Second, I thought I could pass off a potpourri of words as a constructed means of allowing others to visualize my thought process; you know, something along the lines of, "Potato salad, tartar sauce, Carl Winslow, Chandler from Friends"; just a slew of random things. Perhaps a bit too awkward
So then, I pondered the result of meshing the two; a civilized means of discussing random things that came to my mind. It holds weight AND is interesting to read!
The above equation produced the solution, which is the following.
I hate society and the thought process of the people within it. I hate it so much, I wish to associate it with a word more powerful than hate.
The society we live in today sucks. Alright, but I sound like a ranting teenager. (Irony?)
I think the way I would choose to put it is that I loathe the world we all live in today; the ideology, the way we act and conduct ourselves. All of it. I despise it with a passion.
Being a teenager, I think it may be biased for me to say the above at such a young age. Some dare say I am closed minded, seeing as I am basing my opinion on such a short span of life. I think the opposite. I think this world would be a better place if people saw things the way I saw it, thought the way I thought, felt how I felt. Will this ever happen? Probably not; culture thrives upon all of it's members being different. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't wise up to certain things.
Therefore, tonight I shall begin a series of short writings based on what is going on in my head. Tonight, will be Chapter 1 in said series, and will discuss love in modern society.
Ahem, here goes.
Being young, I have become accustomed to the dating scene, and becoming observant of the other gender, and also how we deal with them, how they think, etc. I think most would agree with saying that modern society has corrupted the term "love".
I cannot stand to say the word love when I don't mean it, yet some frequent its use. It doesn't make sense. On a daily basis, I see teenage sweethearts profess their love, and make irresponsible actions and throw their lives away; early marriage, having children; such immaturity is pitiful, and it is a shame it happens. However, the problem with modern society is, it isn't just the teenagers acting irresponsible anymore, it is adults too!
Modern society endorses and promotes promiscuity and irresponsibility to the point where words like love, sex, and marriage have lost their meaning, and have been devalued to just another word in the dictionary. I think what corrupts the world so much is that we allow this ideology to continue.
Most of this irresponsibility is derived from the modern media. The way we are influenced is done in such a way that it allows such irresponsibility to become socially accepted, and almost inherently become the norm. People have lost touch with the way they used to be able to think for themselves, and instead are told how to think, and the sad thing is: it works.
Essentially, what I am saying is we need to change our thought process, for the betterment of others and society in general. If we continue the way we have been, we will be perpetuating this madness into a state of idiocracy, and it would be a shame.
I apologize for not being linear, and not even really finishing. I will finish when I have more time.
For now, peace out cub scouts.
