First Entry


Everyday, I grow convinced that our willingness to remain ignorant and steadfast to our daily routines is killing us. Our confidence in our opinions have made us arrogant to the point where we are shaken by a disgruntling surge of rage should someone intervene to question them. We stopped believing in our god-given obligation to grow, rotting in our commitment to seek the satisfaction that never really exists, always postponing the procedures to perform the greater deeds in life until the years pass us and we find ourselves drenched in self-loathe, submerging even deeper, rather than pursue redemption, growing fat with food and ego. 

We have lost touch with the true meaning of gratitude; being grateful that it could not have been any worse is seen as a modest form of naivety rather then a means of acknowledging facts and moving on. It is overlooked, disregarded as traditional heresy and looked upon as a form of weakness, rather then a means of fortitude and self-recognition.

We know that there is no enough for our urges, and yet we refuse to exercise our rational tenacity to subdue them. We know there is never too late for anything while we still stand, yet we allow trivial aspects such as age, location and public opinion to limit our passion for accomplishments. For self-assurance,we brainstorm excuses to point out, why we are not there yet, rather then working hard enough to not have to do so in the first place. We have grown dependent, clingy and often lack self-reliance.

The the solution in life has always been a simple step back and a sincere inspection of things before mustering the attitude to change everything - that includes ourselves.
