ripped
You say that you want respect
Well then you'd better get some for yourself
'Cause all, that I see right now
Is someone who's lost and insecure
Don't try to be cute with me,
'Cause I know you hate yourself
And you'd end your stupid life now
but you're too spineless
Just like the lady in the blue dress,
You've got cigarettes on your breath,
Hairspray and some cheap perfume.

self/life/selfish/living
Recently, I've been pondering life & living more than usual, especially why we act as we do, and indeed for who do we act the way that we do. I cannot seem to find one single reason to explain this phenomenon of 'the norm' besides simply the phenomenon of 'acceptance'. But can one phenomenon really be explained by another? Would that mean that each phenomenon is just an extension of another, and another before that, until the core phenomena of life are reached? This then raises the question, what is this phenomenon of life? and why are we so readily able to accept each post prodigy if the roots of meaning are unknown? Why should one 'conform' to such ideas, if they cannot be understood?
I must admit, it is hard to unlearn such habits, but the problem is the habit itself. Living, being accepted, being yourself shouldn't be a 'habit'. It shouldn't be anything. It should just BE.
So be. Sciences- Physics, Biology, Psychology- All try to explain the human and it's surroundings, but what about the 'self'?
The self IS the marvel of life. The self IS the reason for life. The meaning, of course is and shall remain unknown. But the self is everything.
If you have the self, you need nothing. If you have nothing, you always have the self.
The difference between feeling like one has nothing and really having nothing is 'the norm'. This system tells you what you should need, not what you really do need. If one removes 'the norm', one needs nothing. One only wants what IT wants, not what the system wants for 'acceptance'.
One can be fat, can be skinny, can be happy, can be sad, can be cultured, can be the self, without 'the norm'.
I believe that we should simply ignore the norm, until it quietly evaporates. Dissipates into thin air. Sinks into the very shadows that wither as the sun rises. From now, i will not let the system live for me. I live for the self. The self is everything, nothing else need exist.
