There is a lot of emphasis on standardisation, quality control, mass production....and we seem to apply these same concepts on the HUMAN RACE TOO! Individuality, uniqueness, creativity, rebellion, a mind of our OWN.....BAAH!, these things are for ARTISTS, they say. About 5 GIANT financial services organisations either went Bankrupt or were Saved by The american Govt with gazillions of the american taxpayers money. I heard some of the so called "financial experts" discuss this Debacle on the news and i swear on Dear god.......they were really speakin some other language with some words of english thrown in....i mean, i cant imagine these guys could have actually been doing some real work cuz i wud imagine them givin all the time coming up with those words. MY POINT is.....what Connect did they ever have with the common investors ? Are they really even that important? ARent we already creating robots before the AI age has even taken off.....i sometimes feel like one.
Pretty much every aspect of our lives are guided by factors nothing to do with OUR satisfaction .....everybody else's but ours. i am not advocating anarchy....not even free will, But just some freedom of self expression, i hope for a world that does not seek a perfect fit for their requirements when it comes to EACH OTHER. Believe me....there will be a plaeasant surprise in store. Because you, me , him, her, they.....we all are a lot more interesting and productive when we arent expected to know the latest sales trends of XYZ company.
Its not worth losing yourself to FIT IN....whether it be in the cool crowd in school, to get that 9am-10pm job,or to impress that girl who doesnt think you are her kind (she,ll find somebody....so will YOU, move on)
Love yourself , and accept others for who and what they are . life would be a better and a more stimulating experience for it.

Well I lose myself trying to fit in the clothes from before I became a Mommy...
Thank god someone else thinks the same way I do....I don't want to keep up with the jonses or anyone else for that damn matter....Who the hell cares if productivity has gone up 60%? (I don't)..How I long for simple times and simple people...to share a whole lot of nothingness without purpose...
Enjoy life , even the small things for we all wake up one day taking a "dirt nap"

Well said. :-) This is why I live by the motto, "life is short, so live it well." Why waste time chasing the carrot if in the end it will leave you empty and still wanting? Do what you can with what you have, always strive for more, but never lose sight of the fact that it should be bringing you satisfaction. Like the adage says, 'Life is time, and time is all you have. :-)
