Dont Be A SlaveDont be a slave, it’s what is expected of you in the new, organised, well-behaved world. What’s the matter? I think I can guess. It’s Monday morning, you gaze at the mirror and staring back is a stranger, someone you don’t really know. He has a tidy haircut, his teeth are perfect thanks to that dental work, he’s clean shaven and polite. Is it you? Who knows anymore? You were sold the ideal weren’t you? If you turn up to class, do your work and don’t talk to the person next to you then you will get a good education. We all know that a good education leads to a good job, which in turn means security, comfort and all of your wildest dreams. But what happened? You’re not happy, you don’t get to speak your mind, you’re polite even when you are treated like an idiot. You trade your valuable time for money doing something for most of your waking hours that you don’t even believe in. It’s rather pointless really. DONT BE A SLAVE! It doesn’t make sense to spend most of your time looking forward to the weekend and your precious four weeks at the end of the year when you can be yourself and stop being polite. You envy those people that do what they want, even the broke ones. Others, who started out just like you, have built solid systems that mean they don’t have to go to that dreaded building day after day. What have you become? Was your ambition to be a pet? What happened to that Korn CD you were flirting with on the weekend? What crap are you listening to now? What happened to the outspoken, dominant, self-assured attitude you had yesterday? It’s Monday and it’s gone for another five days. What a shame, you were beginning to like him and now you have to part ways again. What becomes of you for the rest of the week? You go back to being a well-trained, well-domesticated pet. Take a look around and really observe. What happens when you do something wrong? You get disciplined right? You are required to follow a procedure manual full of silly rules designed to take away every ounce of free will you once had. What happened to that self-made person? He’s now property isn’t he? He’s owned by his evil master who he has to beg for a small chunk of what he himself created through his own hard work and good behaviour. Is that fair? You’ve become very well-tamed haven’t you? Good doggy. Now sit, stay, roll over. You could be disciplined at any moment for something you don’t even understand. It’s safer to do and say whatever you have been trained to do. You are given obedient training that teaches you how to dress, how to walk, how to talk and even what to think. Heaven forbid if the obedience training doesn’t work and you don’t follow protocol. Freedom? What the hell is freedom? Dont be a slave. It may seem the safest way to live your life but at the end it’s all wasted, it means nothing in the grand scheme of things. It’s up to you, but again, my solid, resounding advice is BE YOURSELF, CREATE YOUR OWN LIFE AND ONCE AGAIN……..DONT BE A SLAVE. You’re a person, not a bloody poodle.
