born to be alive

Got this clear moment yesterday when I was passing by the kids screaming in the school yard; that we are all the same as we used to be back then. We only change by age that we cannot control anyhow, and by appearance that we believe we can. But inside we're exactly the same person. Who else could we be? This is who we were born to be. This is our destiny.

I see people using tremendous effort and amount of time to become someone else. They would even stop to exist in case they were told that they failed. At least in their minds they do stop, and only go on living in their bodies. And so they're determined to fail from the very start.

Why? It's not just a fashion movement that takes over people's lives with all the vultures making money out of it. It's all the expectations from family, friends who all seem to know who you should be. But not how. Definitely not why. Maybe they want you to fulfil something they just don't seem to be able to do. There can be endless numbers of reasons. Though, if they cannot accept you just the way you are, it is much more their problem than yours.

Our whole western society is based on misgiven ideas about perfection, and changes. Look around where all the changes brought us to. And I hope now you're not mistaking me for someone who says we should have stopped in the stone age. Or that you are perfect with your laziness or hatred. No, and we all know I don't mean that. If you don't, don't waste your time reading this blog anymore.

It didn't all just start by consumerism to get all your money, and even your credits and loans, basically anything you'll ever earn in this life. It goes back through millenia when the abuse of self-bettering life concepts were looked upon as divine and therefore holy and unmistakable all the way up to our recent and present world of materialism just because we can't come up with anything better after having thrown away all other world views from us.

Now, you sure need to create the circumstances so you can live, and you need to make a living to do so. And as it says it's only circumstances, nothing else. So, what's wrong with being yourself and enjoying life when the job's done? If you don't feel comfortable as yourself, you definitely won't do so as someone else.

My advice is don't let any religion, science, bargain, system etc. that wants to change you, take over and control you. You were born to be yourself. Not by mistake.
