Why do we struggle to be so unique when in the process we become just like everybody else. We're all too eager to be something else. Unhappy with ourselves. And why? Uncomfortable in our own skins? Scared to be who we are? Scared it's not enough for everyone else?
So eager to impress. Needing to be loved. Needing to be fussed over. Needing to be the centre of 15 minutes of local fame? Being what everyone else wants or accepts will not get you anywhere. Ideas are imposed on us everyday of the perfect way to be. What's weird, what's not acceptable, what way we have to be. The poor want more money, the bourgeois want more money, and the rich are wondering why life isn't perfect.
And the horrible part is...
No one is really brave enough to just be them. Everyone has a facade whether you think it or not. We're all the same in the end. All wanting, all changing, all lost.
Someone tell me the point of it all.
Today's blog title comes from the song "Everybody" by VV Brown. Go look her up, she's worth the listen.
