Breaktime, maybe it’s the only time at my company where I am free to think. Somehow while I enjoy the meal that I prepared, my mind is temporarily shifted to another place and time that is somehow familiar and distant at the same time. Familiar in the sense that I’ve been acquainted with the place. Retreat.. I believe that is what I call them. Distant in the sense that I can never truly get to that place. Places where I can always be myself.. or better yet.. places where I can be who I want me to be… Seems far fetched but I would have always wanted to lecture about something. Sometimes I imagine myself as a priest… giving a sermon on how stupid our society has become. There are times that I imagine myself screaming in anger while I order two stupid young couple to get out of the church. Crazy I know.
Of course things could have been different. I might have been a priest, or a lawyer, or perhaps a fat government employee sitting around the office just waiting for pay day. It could have been nice. But instead, I still find myself back to this… hell. Why hell? Hmm.. that’s a very vague question… since we all have different description of hell. But you know what? They all have something in common. And that is…’Suffering’. Yes. Yes. All people regardless of age, race or culture (excluding the atheist mind you..) will always append ‘Suffering’ when describing that place. Hence, I called my livelihood as Hell. Hell in what sense? Well.. suffering!?! Suffering in what sense? Suffering because you are constricted, and stagnant, and surrounded by God Awful persons. God Awful in what sense? Well.. its because their painfully stupid… and they reek of this stupidity that it makes you sick.. that is how awful this place is.
Is there a moment in your life where in everything is ‘A-Okay’ then a dumbass comes in and ruins the day… that is what I am talking about… for some reason the people here are very…very….very…. shallow… I do not know if a tumor the size of a knee cap is lodged in their brain to impair their cognitive skills… or perhaps they hit their head in the cement so many times that apparently their brain is quarter-dead (if there is such a word). Forgive me.. it seems that my mind is still clouded with annoyance to this unknown class of human beings. Perhaps through Natural Selection people with little or no cognitive skills have become the dominant species. Perhaps Nature has stepped in and chose this ‘dumb trait’ to procreate and spread like tuberculosis eating your smog infested lungs. Maybe God finally stretched out his almighty finger and directed our pitiful existence to descend further into madness. Hmm… makes me wonder why do people forget to think?
Maybe the Ancient Egyptians are right all along. Perhaps it is true that the heart is the center of our being. Interesting that they actually believed that our heart is the source of the 4 most important liquid of our body. And those are BLOOD, SPIT, SEMEN and URINE… very intriguing indeed… on the contrary, our brain is demoted to just a mushy organ in our skull where MUCUS comes from. Nice.. given the degradation that is happening to our OH SO Magnificent Society where Stupidity.. oh sorry…let me rephrase that.. ‘Coolness ‘is encouraged and thinking is shunned. Then it is now safe to assume that they were right all along.
Or maybe I am the one who is at fault? Maybe I am just so serious… and I need to lighten up. Hmm… perhaps it is true. Perhaps all people should just be contented on having a livelihood that will not offer you money, nor gratitude, nor fulfillment, nor solace and peace. Maybe they are right and we should just believe what is presented to us by the main stream media. To just swallow what they have to say. To believe what they want us to believe, to be contented and exist how they want us to exist. Should we be contented?
That’s a question we all have to answer one way or another. The problem is… the only way we can answer that is to think about it…
Or maybe I’m just wrong… what do you think?
