Too many people seeking to have their voices heard, screaming, shouting sounding like a pack of wild animals that have been left to starve. Fighting for a piece of meat that only a few people can actually consume. I understand the animalistic nature of humans. I understand that people feel the need to speak up and speak out, to get their opinions out whether its needed or not, whether it’s right or wrong. I understand that the current society of the day relishes on the prospect of self-discovery and free speech. The drama and chaos it causes is far from their concern. Some people realize the chaos it has and try to stay away from it by knowing when to talk and when not to, being mindful of what they say and how they say it. Choosing their battles and realizing that not everyone would agree with their opinions and choosing not to be part of the chaos that surrounds them.
The problem is that not everyone realizes that everyone is entitled to their opinion and no matter how accessible information is, people will always be different, think different and have different beliefs. Because of this fact you cannot make everyone believe in the same thing or act the same way, its simply impossible. I find it highly amusing how everyone wants to preach against discrimination but when someone disagrees with their beliefs the person is being discriminated against because their beliefs are different. Why must everyone believe what you believe? What makes you right and everyone else wrong? There is no way to prove it or is there? After all, proof upon proof has led people to continuously change their beliefs but if it is constantly changing because different proofs keep coming up. Does that mean that everything is true and every belief is correct? I don’t have answers for the most part cause I’m only one person and no matter how much you know you cannot know everything.
I have come to appreciate the silence. I have times where I do not wish to speak, my brain has no will to create a sentence and my lips no reason to utter a single word. The sound of people’s voices become irritating to me. Worse so are the people that choose at that particular moment to indulge me to conversation. When I offer no response, it comes across as rude and off putting. To be honest I couldn’t care less what they think, it’s not all the time that people want to speak. Yet its so hard for people to comprehend that a person just chooses silence over noise. More and more these days I have chosen to stay away from the chaos of the world and the noise of people. I didn’t one day wake up and make this decision, I just subconsciously started doing it before I realised what exactly I was doing.
It has taken me way too long to finish this entry, but I now realize that it will never be finished. The idea that I had when I started writing this has long been forgotten, but I feel that some points were made regardless. Silence is hard to find in a world that breathes chaos and exhales drama. But finding the silence within yourself is the true success. We cannot deny the problems of the world but what does that truly mean? Is it only just the beginning? Or are the sins of our fathers finally catching up with us and there’s truly no stopping how far it would go before we are all destroyed?
