Social Neglect

I find it hard to believe that everybody doesn't live based on the social criteria. Most of us teens were born in this country to be free and it's definitely the land of opportunity. But we insist on carrying out our lives by following these demeaning ways and torturing ourselves to believe that society really wants us to be like this. As youths, we have the ability to change the world, and instead we are too preoccupied with how everybody else is. I must admit that although I have fallen prey to society, I have been able to keep my individualism and my right mind to know what's right from what's ridiculously wrong. We're all living in a time where we don't have to be a follower but instead a leader. And yet, we're still lingering on about the idea of a group. Within this group of yours, there's always a ring leader, an out cast, a bitch, and everything in between. Why must you have to put yourself down to fit in with others who are living their life like they don't possess one. Stop and think about all the times you have felt 'yourself' and I bet you that it has been none. Since you've entered this beautiful world of ours, you have been made set to believe that life is better this way. You don't know how else to change yourself to be someone you were born to be. You let the high lights of the media consume you inside out until you have no clue what you're doing and you have absolutely no clue who you are anymore. I believe that no one will be there to help you pick up your life when it reaches this point. You and I both will have to face the fact that this is who we are as a person. We are all the same, and forever will be. There's no difference between each individual as a whole. The is the hard truth, and although it may hurt, we're actually taking it and changing everybody. We've grasped on to the concept with the little energy we've assumed to have left. We're making up for the lost centuries that we of course can never have back. But I'm proud to say that we are changing. Even if it's for the worst, it's something we're working on.☺
