Screw you.

Why are we all so boneded and tied to this society around us?
every step we take is so measured, everywhere we look is so careful, every word that comes out has been filtered in the mind thrice...... I'm sorry guys, but I'm just really pissed off.
I don't get it anymore-- I tried my best. And I conclude that I can't get it.

Every one is so concerned about everything happening around them. Everybody is in a persuite to fit in. No matter how many times I tried to figure out why, I just got one answer -- Insecurity.

Why is everyone so insecure? Do they think they'll be 70yrs old and not have anyone to hold on too? Can't they get it that if we keep being so careful about each breath we let out, everything is just gonna look like a perfectly sewn life-- when it'll be horribly Not Perfect.

I'm in class 10th. I am an exteremly chilled out person, emotional- yes. But practical and rational. I hope.

I trust myself, I know I can do well.
But do any of those lines above help if every day I'm reminded of the competetion outside? does it not crample up my confidence? Does it help further to give me the look that says "You have to do better" when someone hears about one of my freak sisters getting a 93% in boards?

Maybe I'm just really frustrated right now, and hence I am writing such a post..... But it's not just about Boards, or education guys. Look around you.
Look at 3 people around you in a market. Do any of them have the gutts to open their t-shirts and dance around publicly? No. And I am not saying that just because people don't do that means they don't have gutss, Nu-uh.
What I mean to say is, ever thought about Why they wouldn't do something like that?
Is it because they don't feel like doing it?
Or is it because they're too scared about what the people around them would say?

The answer is Unmistakably the 2nd one. Sadly,too.

If you disagree with me, I'b be happiest. But that sad truth is, out of a population of say- 100,
99 want to to what the beaten track teaches them.
They're all scared cause in our "so-called-society" , people who choose to be/act different, are called "Mad Men".

Yes, that's the name our society has given to unique poeple.
I've been through it, and hell I can bet, each and every one of you-- if any day you guys did something different, even when you thought no one was looking, 5 people must have thought "what? is he mad?"

I'm sorry for such a deppressing post friends,
but it's just something that has been building in me since a long time.

Now, the only answer I see -- when the "society" says anything to me is

"Screw you."


Second me ?

  1. I totaly second you.
    It's sick how the society can get on to you in such a level, that you stop believing in it. I mean, most people think things in US are more liberal. Sure-- to an extent. But you know this whole culture is a problem not only in India, but jolly well in US and most of the places around the globe.
    And you've got the right answer - Screw you.
    You've just been a little sober, cause maybe, just maybe i would have used another, very useful 4 letter word instead of "Screw". Lol. Anyhow, I loved the line about how every word that comes out has been refined in our minds thrice.. Its so true, and brilliantly written in just a sentence.
    You're a born writer Cherry. The more i read our posts, the more I'm amazed at you. And your thought precess.
    Anyway, good job. Again!
    Mum wants to publish your stuff,btw.
    :P

    Cheers to your notebook and pen.
    And you!

    :)

  2. Hey Ro,
    I am just so glad that you get what I mean. And you've used the exact word, that my mind couldn't figure out-- "Sick".
    Yes, this whole culture is just sick.
    And I'm pretty sure that it's a problem in US too, no mattter how poeple think of it is a "Do whatever you want" place. But it's not.
    So yeah.

    Lol, no man. My writing is nothing great, it's just that our wavelengths match. Is all.
    Aww, tell aunty she's too cute and makes me feel nice about myself :)

    and tell your sister that i miss her.

    Cheers to our wavelenths! lol
    :)

  13. Hey Nilanjana. Sorry you weren't feeling so good. I agree with you. Insecurity can stop a person from doing many things. BTW, you were quite right. Many of the world's greatest people ( who were obviously unique ) were called or are still called mad men, before being called geniuses ( Walt Disney comes to mind ). I think the thing is, if you're not special and recognized, you must be one with the crowd. Most people who criticise are either insecure about their defects, or don't know about them. In fact by now, its become a human tendency to both criticise and compare. I'm probably a living example when I tell you about my writing each day.

    Anyway, I hope you perk up soon , and hopefully will come up with some more "cherry" posts which will help helpless readers like me who look to your posts for inspiration, distraction and a way to avoid the problems and rigmaroles of everyday life. :)
    Best of luck !

    ReplyDelete
  14. Hey Charu :)
    I totaly agree with you -- As usual! Indeed, insecurity can drive people to extents that they cannot even imagine off. It's sad, and I hope some day, some "mad men" come out with its medicine!
    Thank you so much for your enouragement! Means a lot to me!
    AND besides, i disagree a tiny winy bit.. Its not necesary that people who criticise are insecure/don't know of the cubject. They can really help you out to a greaattt deal! But thanks for your opinion dear :) thats what Im looking for!
    And you are a fantastic writer yourself!
    Oh and im sure my friends will make sure I get "cherry" posts!! hahahaha!! Be back soon :)

  27. Hi again nil ! I thought about something to add to our discussion :
    When I talked about people who criticise,I now realise,I meant people who hurt others by their criticism or might stop a person from doing something because they wonder what the critics (society) will say. I did not mention the learned people who air their opinions freely when they dislike something. It's just that many of the people I've seen criticising A)don't know about it themselves B)Are criticising to be with the crowd C)Are criticising just for the heck of it. I'm sure even we do it sometimes, like when we see a movie we don't like. But there's a fine line between criticising because you dislike something and debasing someone else's efforts or life by comparing them with others or refusing to respect the difficulty of what they are doing.

    Hope you get the gist of what I've written. And feel free to disagree! Thanks for reminding me of the other critics with your reply.
    See you in school !
