If you think about it, we are living someone else’s version of reality. Obviously we have to live this way to survive but we never had a say in how we want life to be. Brought into the world and told I must do this and do that to live, I was never given any other choice.
It was nice meeting someone new and they had different lingo than you, different humor than you, different values than you, etc but now it’s all the same.
A generation raised by the internet is a generation that shares the same exact personality. Back then, your personality was influenced by your environment (peers at schools you attended, city you grew up in, parents/grandparents, etc.) but now everyone has the same personality.
I will never understand why some people when faced with truth choose to focus on everything else besides the message. The message is everything, why does it matter the tone and delivery when these things don’t change the content of the message
It’s not hard to arrive to similar conclusions as many philosophers, you just have to ask questions that make you uncomfortable and go against everything you’ve been taught. One question leads to more questions, the goal is not to find an answer but to find comfort in not knowing
Hate how people try to dismiss a valid perspective by saying shit like “you must’ve read Nietschze” (or any other philosopher). How did Nietschze arrive to his conclusions? He must’ve read Nietschze too.
A generation that told us not to believe everything we see online ended up believing everything online. The algorithm got so good at reaffirming people’s opinions, people don’t question what they see. They know we don’t seek truth, we seek ways to validate our opinions as true
If you have the right to fly your flag, someone else has the right to burn their flag. If you love freedom, you will love both acts because they’re two expressions of the same thing which you claim to love, freedom.
Many claim to love freedom, only few do. Majority only love the feeling that comes with identifying as free. If you truly loved freedom, you would love the sight of others exercising their freedom even when their views differ from your own.
They don’t want you to love yourself because the moment you do, you stop buying what they’re selling. Your insecurity yields profit and it all starts the moment you feel like you're not good enough. So stop listening to their lies and start listening to your truths!
I find it interesting is how ignorance breeds confidence. The more you know, or the more you know that you don’t know, the more doubtful you become of what you know. But the little you know, or the little you know that don’t know, the more confident you become of what you know
CPI has always been misleading imo, the change in regard to cost of living is so apparent. Rather use M2 money supply to account for the devaluation of the dollar and decrease in purchasing power
rick ross had rich forever, 2 chainz had TRU realigion, meek had dreamchasers, wiz had taylor alderdice, j cole had sideline story, future had pluto 3D, drake and kendrick had take care/GKMC
the air just tasted different in 2012
You can keep reinventing yourself, everyday you have breath is another day to live. You're never to old to experience and try new things. Nature isn't driven by a sense of urgency to get somewhere so why should we?
Move fast to reach where? If you look at life as a race, where is the finish line? If the race began when we were born that means death is the end. And this is the weird obsession about age that I was talking about, just live life and enjoy all life has to offer
Everyone is suffering mentally, the system was intentionally designed for us to live in survival mode but we were never designed to live to survive because our survival instincts are reserved for life or death situations. There is no health in being adjusted to an ill society
Homelessness shouldn’t exist, the day we witnessed someone on the streets is the day we should’ve addressed the issue of homelessness. It’s become normal to see someone sleeping on the street in the 100 degree weather.
Yes they are addicts but they were you and me before they became addicts. The only difference between the homeless and those who committed to suicide is that the homeless have a coping mechanism that still works otherwise they’d be dead.
