In Freedom lies Friction

Far beyond the pines

Pitch

You could say were ‘doomed’ to experience the kind of life we live. With all its entangled obstacles and different roads. But one thing has always stood out: our sheer will to survive. A vision that lies deeply-rooted in the soul the breath that calms us down. And that we only have at present when we are confronted with real solitude. Solitude meaning the solitary state.

A quiet mind is a virtuous state many philosophers believe. Because once you wake up in this dream reality. It all seems and looks so far fetched. I for one always believed in certain denial, the denial that nothing’s real and that we are solely a character presenting a certain state required for this animalistic world. But I was wrong what has driven us apart from the other creatures has to do with the reason we think.

The reason for whether something is wrong or right. Good or bad. But how we decide on this when we’re all different. The answer is we shouldn’t minimize the opportunity. In a way for us, this is the ultimate adversity. Everything should or could be perfect. Perfect in balance but a balance that we decide upon. But a balance that is agreed upon. A status quo if you will.

The status quo has long been defined by certain means and working hard. Now that we live in a time of friction the tables have turned around and we are given the option to either turn ourselves into savages or wear the suit they believe will fit us. Based on the scores that you play within their multiplayer game. Humans have turned their freedom into a personalized model. That works as long as you abide by the rules, their rules. A ruling book is never handed to us it’s just presumed that everyone is walking in uniform and that we all greet the person taking our ticket.

In a way, our flagrant opposition will not matter. Because even the top dogs will laugh at us and think that we’re out of our minds. You have everything to lose, so just move on and get going. Remember that as a child you were given the reasons to be yourself. He or she is developing, we should let them develop in their natural way. Suddenly when you are 18, oke son, daughter here you go this is your education now go fulfill your dreams.

That smoking gun has never been our choice. Now in this time the more we grow up the less oxygen they feed. They need you with and in certain apparel I mean they can’t just completely ruin you. But just enough the make you a good person. Good enough to fulfill ‘your dream’. So whether we like it or not. We are set up to become baseless.

An animal that turns all his freedom into friction. The friction to be seen. To be heard. To feel. Meanwhile, we all stare away waiting for that one moment to breathe.
