Dette er noe jeg skrev da jeg var ferdig på videregående skole..
are we dropouts? Are we doomed to forever feel like outcasts?
Are there no ways back into a comfortable space in this society without
leaving all the things so fondly believed behind? twelve years have just been
spent in school and at the end of it there is nothing but a feeling
that something is terribly wrong. I fear that if I
ever speak again I will spread the essence of death, forgetfullness,
ignorance and apathy all around me. its going to smell like the seven
layers of hell beacuse I know that troughout these twelve years something
died in me. I can feel the decay now and I do not want to spread it by
opening my mouth and breathe it out. I am not sure if i should ever speak again
because alot of the things I know now have been brought to me from a
perpective so narrow and generalised that thoughts, creativity and all the other
parts of what should define a human being wont be able to fit.
Creativity and thoughts are things we really can not generalise and they are
therefore labeled as threats because If we do not fear what we do not
understand we also lose our respect for the authorities who give us the
illusion that the machine is the answer to everything. This is done by
denying and pushing out all the things that are not understood and unknown.
This leads us back to what is undefined and limitless such as dreams, ideals,
thoughts and creativity. It feels to much like these aspect are gone and not
included in a teaching system in witch about 98% of the people who are not
suffering from hunger and desease are put into to learn
what our socalled leaders see fit. Conserning the fact that we are not
meant to create anything new it looks like they mean for us to
work the machine and keep the wheels of our placebic order rolling and
crushing all the things that makes us human. The day all
resistance and hint of rebbelion in the form of new thoughts that may
question some of the standing agreements are silenced we are nothing
but movable piezes in a game where everyone who moves the piezes wants
it to end in his or her favour. Not in the favour of the collective.
The thing is this. I do not want to be a zombie. I`d rather be dead.
Because If I am a zombie than the ME in what i am is dead anyway. To
be honest Im not really sure if these are my words at all. The things
im saying could really be the works of twelve years worth of brainwashing.
What have i found out? What lies do i believe and how can i prove
myself wrong? the words i utter may be the words of the ones responsible
for killing the spark in me. These words can be the ones they drove me to
say. If that is the case I can promise this..
If there is any part left in me that still lives. If there still is something
I have not forgotten, pushed out or left behind I will not let these years
and theire damage upon me be forgotten. I will regain all the sacred and
loved perspectives and thoughts I once had before you washed out the
piezes of me that would never be of any benefit to you. If Im not alive
the ones who still lives will fight our fight. twelve years. My most vulnerable
and shaping years.. And you took them. Sometimes I fear it worked. Sometimes
I feel as if I am a cone. A fully replacable part of something meant to be
to big for me to understand. I am fully replacable and i serve a cause i
do not understand. I feel as if school was meant for this. As if all classes
who offered a glimpse into the histories and ways of mankind where limited
as much as possible and only there to keep us from picking up the scent
of what I now fear is going on. I have been taught alot. But the things
I really cherish and remember are me and my classmates and the questions
we asked. I do not in any way respect the answers and ideals presented to
us as our own. There were few reflected answers. I guess some teachers where
at school to learn as well as to teach but most of them wanted nothing but
lines out of us. The lines we where to remember from reading the books we
were given. We have been given shoes and a road and all our words have been
taught. Not found or in any way questioned by anyone who could have helped us.
I am within sleeping distance of the finishline now and all I want to do is
to go to sleep and wake up when its all over. I am going to spend som years
breathing the air i was refused to even know in school. Its a perverted truth.
Facts held from the new generation to keep them from evolving into someone
who may ask a question someday.
Less questions means fewer answers and this stops truth and honesty from being
a part of our lives. we must cooperate to stop this. step out of line and meet
new people whit new perspectives. Help the less fortunate. There are more of them
than you can imagine. Read about the damage done by socialdarwinism and imperialism.
Read about how industrialism parted the world and turned half of it into
something machinelike an doomed the rest of mankind to poverty. Think about just
how much we consume. Then think about what people really need to survive.
There are needs that have to be met and there
are needs that we create. There are also some reasons why whe should not give in to our
greed in many situations. There are other continents and other parts of our planet
who suffer daily. Disease and hunger are things that people around the world must
face everyday. Most of the european countries have culture and movies and music and
museums and all sorts of comforting things like Mp3 and internet and that stuff.
These are all wery cool things to have, but it feels kind of odd to me when we use
millions off dollars or NOK or whatever to satisfy urges we easily can live without
when millions of people worldwide die of dehydration because there is no water or
effective way to cry out for help. We are to narrowminded when we think that our
way of living does not affect the ones we do not know and we are way to apathetic
and greedy if we do not care. Another reason to not consume as much and not to support
all the things our society promotes is the enviromental threath our way of living is.
We have almost removed all of the tropical forests and we have contributed to
the extinction of more species than anyone can imagine.. Furthermore it seems
that the lands that have the abiltiy to help the less fortunate are filled with
people who do not think that one person alone can change history.. this does not only
prove western and european people to be the most decayed inhabitants of our planet.
It also keeps us from knowing. Instead of realising that our actions changes the lives
of more people than we will ever meet we just accept things as they are and walk
in line to wherever we are told to. it is so much easier for us, because the dark
side of this way of living does not affect us. We live on top of a cake.
`It is to big for any of us to change` is a well known
thought for most of us. This does not only make way for the problems.
This actually contributes to it. And there are no schools that
teaches you how to think for yourself and question an authority that tells you
that you have to work with the machine if do not want to end up on drugs or in poverty.
This brings me back to the beginning and my satisfaction when i think about the fact
that I am no longer in school. I do believe that people can lead a succesfull life
without selling out and removing all personal twists and turns about themselves.
It would be easier to do this if our society would support it but if
the society you live in wont support you, I dont see why you should support it.
Its offcourse easier but the easiest way is rarely the best. Believe this.
If you put a little more of yourself in the things that you do you will relate
better to whatever comes out of it. Try it.. Imagine a world based on the
thoughts and theories of all individuals where everyone would be entital to whatever
they needed and all that was left would be shared equally and globally in a way that
would not drain our mother, the allmighty earth.
I did not learn any of the things I have talked about now in school. In school i
learned that an education is a must and idealism is not. What is an educated man?
If i was one would i be able to see What i do now? What lies i have been fed and
how i could dispose of these? We are taught that everything is allright but it is
not. It is as if we are meant to be a part of a machine that only uses its power
to step on all the things that may be a treath. Im not saying that all teachers
are doing this while knowing that its so wrong, but I have not met one teacher
with an answer to any of the important questions. how can we be so apathetic as
to see how wrong things are divided and not care. how can we use the planets resources
whitout thinking about tomorrow. how can people be satisfied with being a cone.
I thank everyone who has read this far and I urge you to arm yourself with the
information and facts that the schools and the authorities dont want you to know.
This is in most cases the truth and not the words written, told and preached by
the winners of the wars that make out our history. The ones who wins the wars
and steps on the opponents writes the history. Seeing as things have not changed
a bit, I would like the days we live now to be remembered as they where. not as
the days when industrialism proved itself perfect. There are major flaws and they
have affected the way people think. If our times are remembered trough the words
that the ones in charge now would write I know that it would not fit the actual
picture. Some may call it activism, but these things are not going to change unless
everybody gets to know the downside of our way of living. try to gain knowledge
and talk about it with your friend. Dont settle for rules and regulations if you cant
see a reason for the rules and regulations to exist. Dont ever stop.
Tonight something reminded me of the days I spent more time thinking about my
own twist and turns. The wery same turns and twist as I previously reffered to
and the wery same twists and turns as everyone has. Troughout my childhood I saw
alot of things that made me love and cherish art. Art as in something that really
hits you. I am truly and will forever be a sucker for it. It is and will always
be my one love. Tonight I was again hit by it. As i said I have lately focused
on politics and global issues. I have questioned alot more about the status of things
troughout the world these last months than I have the rest of my life combined. I
think I have been able to do that because all the things that goes on inside me has
been a little less present these months. I have done so many things for so many
other reasons that I have forgotten about the love I have for this art. This personal
art. the one that really punches me down and makes me love it at the same time. Admitting
this also reveales for me that it is not so wrong to thing about the state of everything
else as well. But it is oh so sad that I had to be reminded that there is just as much
going on inside of me to. I knew so well before and I could also show the same kind of
love back to whatever granted me the key to this breathtaking world by exploring its
seemingly limitless being. But I do not know what made me focus more on the things
that happen here in real life. Its not really real life because real life does not
exist. Real life does only exist when one leaves the wheels and lets it all go. Not
into oblivion but wherever one may roam. Real life as it is called at its most popular
has nothing to do with this. Real life today is the limits that forever will try to define
and quarantine real real life. Atleast the real life most people talk about is this.
I guess the reason I have been thinking more about the `real` life is that it has caused
alot of things that has limited the world that appears when you let go of things that
really does not matter from everyday excistanse. School as I so fondly speak of does
not support the feeling of something hitting you on a personal leves as something
important. This means that school rules out art and does not see this as something
we should learn to live by. We should all live by our hearts and the things our heart
shows. If anyone who reads this does not know
what i mean by `follow your heart` I can share it with you now
`the term *follow your heart*`
the heart is an organ in most living creatures chest or stomachregion that pumps blood
troughout its veins. This and a number of other bodily functions are essential for us if we
want to live on.
The heart does really not look like the heart we see on most greetingcards or pictures.
Its really a combination of four chambers that pumps out or sucks blood in to keep the
streams steadily pumping trough us.
When people use the term follow your heart they do not mean that one should follow the
organ named `heart`.. It referres to the times when you have a feeling that says you
should do different from what everyone tells you. If you follow your heart you will
always end up where you really should. It is not always as easy to follow the heart
as one would like. One must first find the truth and honesty that sleeps somewhere in
the mind. One must wake truth and honesty. If one keeps close to truth and honesty and
respects them one will finally make friends with them and they will lead you to a special
place in yourself where you can feel something wery odd in times when you are facing
specially demanding tasks. This odd feeling will stay with you if you keep following
truth and honesty trough these tasks. This oddity feels wery good if you do what it
tells and wery bad if you do not. It demands as much as it gives and you will know. It
speaks to you in a way that only you can understand and pass on to your friends. If you
listen to this and walk the paths that keeps you close to your friends truth and honesty
you follow your heart. And you will understand more and feel more and give more. It will
feel great and you will understand many more of the things you feel. This is the meaning
of the saying follow your heart.
Now go try it out in real life..
I think its terrible that people whos lives are filled with corrupted leaders and desease
and poverty can not ever open the doors into this world. I guess that this is my reason
for talking so much more about global affairs. I want everyone to atleast being able to
feel the things I feel allthou I see that not even everyone who has theire basic needs
covered is singing and dancing in this seemably dark place. I am so sure of this
because I know that this is the next way to go. If everyones basic needs are someday met
and if we all stand around with every rule that limits more than it broadens behind us
we can all relate to these limitless wonders that are Art.
Tonight I was fuelled. I was twirled back into the thoughts I created as a child. I was
triggered to implode and to remember why I cannot ever let my love go away. I must thank
technoligy for this because its a tool to visualize thoughts I can relate to. Even thou
other people whom I have never met, are able to make things I can relate to, and the fact
that this in itself is worth a life of dedicated interest, I am sad to say I to often feel
alone when I go to this world. It is to often filled with silence and my own words,
thougts and actions turns to echoes that rumble so loud and ongoing in the limitlessness
that I seldom make out what they mean.
Are there no ways back into a comfortable space in this society without
leaving all the things so fondly believed behind? twelve years have just been
spent in school and at the end of it there is nothing but a feeling
that something is terribly wrong. Not one word have I heard from any teacher or
meant-to-be-guidinglight that comes close to opening these doors for me or that in any
way shows acceptance if I would do it by myself. This is not real living.
This is only real life. Why is the REAL real life called daydreaming when the world
that we live in now is the true nightmare.
it only proves that these things I talk about are not daydreaming at all.
It is waking up..
