What is right and what is wrong? I’ve been told that there is no saying in whether what you did is right or wrong; it all depends on how you perceive it. However, we do have many preferences in life to dictate whether our action is a rightful one. So many fucking morality values in each of us that made us judge one another. There is definitely no room for proofs or explanations. For the entire “if” around us, what if what you did was right but was wrong in the eye of the people around you? Should we bother to even fight for it? Because there is really no point in doing so, you yourself know it the best. Hence, we are all living down a road that is already lain out for us. We will soon realize that a happy life is a life where you do what everybody else told you to. Still, we’ve been also told that we have the right to speak, the right to act, and the right to freedom. All these majestic sounded phrases are there to make us feel better when we have been stripped the right for all those.
In short, we live for the happiness of others. We will be nevertheless happy when someone sacrifices for you, well, maybe mourn a little when that someone actually did. This beautiful world is a masquerade. Everything, everybody that lives in it looks happy. We were all given a mask on our birth, had been taught how to wear it when we’re growing up, and finally learn how to keep it on for the rest of our lives ourselves. When others want to know you, they don’t want to know the real you. They never intended to because everyone behind that mask is another fucked up person. I personally don’t think that I could stand living with myself for a day. Hence, I became this person that would constantly yearn for other’s acceptation, despite any price that I would have to pay. Then slowly, I myself couldn’t differentiate what is real and what is false. After all that, I’ve come to conclude that everything and everybody is the same. There is only right when everybody else think so, what I think doesn’t matter.
