So often we mistake the world of man for the actual world, that when we occasionally receive signals from society that say we should piss off and die we interpret those messages as coming straight from nature herself. We can end up with our own blades inserted into our bellies, and expiring with the certainty that our time was on Earth was done due to desires of the Universe at large. But just as the mind of man is always trying to blot out the voice of his super ego, society reviles anyone who appears to go against the grain, challenging even the most stagnant and obtuse of its ideals, indeed rejecting she or he who is often striving for the betterment of the whole.
When I think of the society as a body that I live within, imagining of all it's parts, I can both see many places for myself to work and thrive, and simultaneously nowhere that I may feel desired and wanted. Both realities are equally true because in every position where I thrive, there are many who resent me simply because I exist, people who resent anyone thriving equally. It is a cruel and self-immolated beastie we owe our lives to, and if you feel like the victim, you probably the fuck are. The plight of the socialized animal is that we are victimized countless times and then cast away to lick our wounds and call ourselves stupid for participating in whatever way we could.
I would go so far as to suggest that resting supine behind the greatest injustices in the history of mankind is some morally delinquent dude, convincing himself of his own intrinsic value. Then again, that could be what the devil tells me, buttering me up for the next go around, when I strike the fatal blow against good in defense of my personal sense of specialness.
In other news, I really want a Sigma SD1. I bet they are coming out soon. Maybe in Las Vegas next week? I hope so!
