Illness

Before I get to the main topic of my post, I thought it would be good just to declare that I belong to no culture, sub-culture and I'm not being influenced neither am I trying to influence anyone's change of beliefs, political, religious or any others. This ofcourse goes only to the internet, I guess only place where it is possible to be that way. This shall be mentioned later again, but right now I need to describe an illness.

Be aware and be concerned, it will get to you, just like it got to me! Uninvited, unexpected illness that has found its way to me sitting in front of my computer. I tried to fight it back, but it has its assistants. Their assistants do not get payed, they are not even aware they work for her. They are simply diseased. Anyways, this illness I'm talking about has many different names. I shall not name it, I'll leave that you. I will describe its symptoms, tell you how to recognize it and hopefully give you good advices in order to help you defeat it.

Have you seen these illiterate, uneducated, closed-minded people? Ofcourse you did, they are everywhere. Not only because there are so many of them (naturally, they outnumber their opposites), but because they want to be eveywhere. Being curious about your life, they'll come and rant about their own. Sadly, the majority is called the society. That very society wants you to live your life as they wish. You don't even want to play their game, but their lives are miserable enough for them to be willing to force you to. You say no, they call you an outcast. You say you love being an outcast, they'll tell you that you don't. You say yes and now they say no. I started with an example just to remind you how our society often works, now I'll continue on describing the symptoms.

People are born as naturally curious. That's why our knowledge about world is growing every day. More books, more scientific discoveries, more new gadgets are all ways of showing that people always had and always will be curious. That's probably one of are best characteristics. The strength of our society lies within it, but also our weakness. You'll understand why it's a weakness only if you've ever been sad for reasons beyond simple human interactions. Some people never let curiosity mess with their lives and their ignorance grows bigger every day. They are the viruses who spread the disease. This disease tries to take over you by telling you what to do, how to act, what to eat, drink, wear and not only does it do that, but it also curses you for not being "normal". You may regocnize these people immediately by the lack of eloquence, that's probably the easiest way to do it and a certain one (unless they're shy...argh, worse exceptions than in spelling english words).

Today I feel abnormal (well, not much less than any other day) and this thingy was coming closer and closer. Cure for such illness is not to be found anywhere else but in books. Loving books full of new ideas. Lots of ideas lead to new ideas. Ideas lead to being busy about ideas and not being able to mess with other people lives (and their own ideas). All hail ideas!
