Lately I've been thinking a lot about how people are.
I feel like it's all wrong in the world. And I know, it seems like such a cliche thing for a young man to think everyone is wrong about everything and that only he sees the truth, but...
It's not like that.
The world is mostly the same, but some things have become so natural to people that I take a step back and go "HUH?"
People have been more lonely, sadder, and hopeless. And in an effort to run from those feelings, they latch on to frivolous things and are happy about that. And most times those things are mostly prejudicial to many people.
It's a little bit about that thing Tyler says on Fight Club, about buying things we don't need and lack of purpose.
Nowadays people don't seem so interested in common wellness. They seem mostly selfish and only interested in their own (I won't even say good)... their own pleasure.
I won't get too much into this or I might lose myself...
I'm just saying this because I went to a very big mall in this city and everywhere I looked I saw people with preoccupations that seemed so frivolous. It might be just the way I see things lately, but most people don't seem to worry about the truly important things...
I'm not revolted, I'm just kinda sad seeing that PEOPLE, like actual people, human beings like Leonardo Da Vinci or Mister Rogers, people with the capability to create, change and experience things, decide to waste all that potential into forgettable and meaningless experiences.
I guess I shouldn't expect so much from regular people.
But damn, man. The human existence seems too special for it to be experienced worrying about the wrong things.
Everyone in the world is capable of incredible things
and yet... yeah
Don't take me too seriously I know nothing of the real world. I'm just putting my thoughts out there
Well, that will be all :)

another thing to add is that it also does baffle me how humans are capable of things beyond our understanding yet we are troubled with problems that seem so,…. low leveled
But the mind is just as fragile just as much as we have the ability to create things above our comprehension, no? You train the mind on whether to remain strong or not, after all. It can go to good and bad extremes.

I see you value a use of potential when it comes to life. I believe stasis is something that is becoming more and more common as technology advances, and I’ll write a long blog about that.
To be more insightful of the world, it’s necessary to be observant and notice patterns; which I’m glad you do. I agree humanity is slightly coming to a downfall. But I try not to have prejudice on humanity because nobody can fully grasp how large the world is. Experiences are subjective and change the way we view humanity, so just make sure not to have an extreme view on humanity or else you might end up wrathful 0.0
Wow. I'm impressed with how insightful you are.
I wrote this at a time I was pretty upset with the subject.
Now looking back I feel different yet think the same way.
You touched on the subject, about turning wrathful, that I've been thinking lot lately because of some things that happened recently.
I had a talk with an uncle I he said he thinks 'smart people' should be careful about themselves, because he has seen people who he regarded as smart, turn either depressed or another form of broken. He mentioned an old classmate of his, back in high school. His class was planning a get together after 30 years. And he saw the guy. He described him as always being different, being smarter than most. He said he went to Russia and studied a bunch Dostoevsky and stuff. But then, after 30 years, he has drug and health problems, is 'wrathful'. Just a mess.
I disagreed, thinking that being smart isn't the only factor to those reactions. Although I do agree that it is "A factor".
Thank you for your input. I got to write out many things I have been thinking of.
