If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything!

Friday, August 1st, 2008

They say if you don’t stand for something you’ll fall for anything, is that why the ground looks like a cemetery of bodies. People tend to want to stand up for all the wrong things and lay down for all the right. One must think, am I a leader or a follower? Well look behind you, if you come across nothing but blank space. Question answered! You’re the follower. Society leads people to believe that what they say is how its suppose to be, and if people are continually force feed what to think after awhile they lose that capability to think for themselves. Television shows you how your suppose to live, nice house, fancy cars, and a perfect family, but if you don’t fit into this picture. Society then considers you to be somewhat of an outcast. Radio stations plays music that is more mind numbing then thought provoking. Magazine show you how wonderful you could look if you only weighed 90 pounds because having the skeleton look is in this fall. And lets not forget all the wonderful foods. They say broccoli is good for you this week but next week it will be put on the top ten list of foods that will give you cancer. One must wonder are we really this easily lead to believe or do we have a hidden desired to be controlled. But there is no need to desire to be controlled the government controls us on a daily bases and they do it with nine little numbers. Oh, you thought your social security was given to you to give you access to the world sorry to inform you it was given to you to let the government know what drone you are and make sure your doing what they say. You are doing what they tell you to do. Right?? Cause we can’t have you standing for something when you know your suppose to be laying down. Bammusikmedia
