Life, the World and Stupidity.

Why does everyone have to change the world? Whats so wrong with it in the first place that every now and then some other idiot sets out on a quest to "heal" or "bring hope" to it?

I think people just need to sit down and take a look at the world in a more optimistic point of view. I'm not claiming that I'm an optimist, I'm anything but. But what i see these days is a number of people just complaining about their problems of the world and trying to either find something to blame or crib at. Those with better resources set out to change it. Don't try to fix it, if it ain't broke in the first place.

No one ever takes a moment to consider that all thats happening is happening in a continuity which no-matter what we cannot influence. There's a certain rhythm to everything so that it all falls into place. We doing something or for that matter anything is not going to change the course of things. It's akin to trying to build a dam with a bundle of rocks in the middle of the Nile. Its as futile as it is stupid.

I for one am a firm believer in just sitting back and enjoying the ride. Enjoy whatever is happening, its all gonna fall into place somehow. So what if i don't die a billionaire? So what if everyone i know will be disappointed? Big shit. The effect that one person can have on 5.999999billion others is NOTHING, that is unless i can declare war on some country and bring that number down to 4 billion. A few million of us lesser and we'll be better off. I say kill all the politicians, agreed it wont affect the population in a big way, but just watch the intellectuality quotient go through the roof.

Now some other person reading this thought of mine will have another thought going through his head. What a defeatist attitude... (says reader) if we all thought that way, the world will never be a better place. Listen up crackhead, (retorts me) the world doesn't need to be a better place, if you'd just stop thinking of doom and death and opened your eye's to see the million things going right for a normal person in the course of a day you'd love this world. This whole pessimism brainwash is due to the sensationalisation of news. Look how happy we were before Mass Media decided to kill our happiness. All we see now is a headcount on the number of deaths and rapes and whatnots in the world, we've become so paranoid that whenever we see a rose we worry more about the thorns than the beauty of the flower.

Is this what life was supposed to be reduced to? Constantly looking over our shoulders in fear of death or bodily harm? There's an amusing irony in this, on one hand constantly fearing Death, and on the other constantly complaining about Life and how boring and monotonous it has become. Life and Death is an either-or choice, either love your life as you have it and work to improve your own life without trying to change the world, or just quit the world as a whole and overcome your fear of Death.

Its high time we all appreciated this World and all its charms, beauties and opportunities. Every bad thing is just a passing thought, get over it. Life doesn't "suck", all you need is a better outlook. Somehow the value of Life got lost in this mess of modernization, we all need to realize this. The World and Life as a whole needs a new P.R. Rep, bad publicity is all it gets these days.
