Why.
And now I want to briefly explain my motivation for doing this. I have recently come upon a tumblr of an acquaintance (mad stalking bro LOL— sorry. had to.), and his writing just inspired me. He sounded so intriguing and captivated my attention immediately. I wanted to sound like him. He sounded smart (however, through further stalking, I realized his ideas were not that great and mostly inspired through drugs. Bummer.). I wanted to sound like him- persuasive, charismatic, all that good stuff. And then I watched a movie- V for Vendetta. It was such a GREAT movie. Very moving- the message was clear. I felt I was being too shallow- the world was too concentrated on the small things that didn’t really matter. Especially teenagers these days- finding a boyfriend/girlfriend, how one appears on the outside. I was getting sick of it. Do the opinions of others really matter that much? And I must admit, I am a hypocrite in some aspects. The opinions of others can really affect me sometimes. But I realize it is wrong and I want to change that. Another thing is history class. That can really get to you sometimes- all those reforms in the way humans think. All of those rebellions. Emerson and Thoreau. Their ideas are really revolutionary. However, you can’t take their ideas for granted. You can’t worship them. You have to have some sort of doubt in your mind. Or at least I do. Merry Christmas everyone.
*Edit: And you can’t forget psychology class. That gets to you too.
