Falling Down 📉

 I’m Losing Faith.

    I no longer believe in the people. And I’m far gone from believing in the system.

    What more does it take? How much more, must we tolerate? At what point, does enough become enough? The slow, tranquil approach is driving me mad.

    We live in a society, where nobody cares to think. Where money and influence are all that matters. Where morals and values, seem to be nothing more than a bad joke. A concept, which has not been present for quite some while. Where energy and direction are simply decided by a few figures at the top, who seem to lead us astray. The thought of being misguided, like a dog who trusts their owner, only to be brought right to the vet and have their very manhood removed.

    The faith in the people no longer exists. The belief that we will, somehow, snap out of it, is all but gone. The slim chance of hope in which I’ve been holding on to, for years now, seems like a wasted effort on my part. Perhaps that is what I get, for being so naive. Nothing more than a wasted life, hoping, praying, for something to change. The reality is, all hope has left us. No man left, seems to care.

    And why should they? Why should anyone? When the top becomes colluded, and the system becomes two-tiered, why would anybody from above reach down and help? Why would they try and save those who remain? 

    Perhaps the Greeks were the closest, when describing the gods above. Perhaps their attitude, their anger, their imperfection and disinterest in human beings, is the most accurate description. Why would those, who have found success, fought in wars, and achieved greatness, ever care about those who have failed? How can we, as a society, truly believe that there is an answer, when those at the top will do anything to remain separated from our struggle?

    The concept of unification and awakening is nothing more than a fairy-tale. In a society like our own, where social media and television are uses as weapons of propaganda, how can anybody truly unify the masses? If there was ever a chance of succeeding at such a task, the opportunity has long been gone by now.

    So how much longer, does the madness continue? How much more time must pass, before people begin to take matters into their own hands? One by one, sane men, reaching their limits. Over and over again, the individual loses their mind and has nothing left to give. Will it be like popcorn? With each individual being popping on their own schedule? No coordination, no communication. Nothing but evil figures, suppressing the masses into insanity.

    I suppose all one needs to do for an answer, is to look around. Mental health, especially in men, is going through a crisis. A world, where individuals go mad and take matters into their own hands. No attempt at fixing a problem. No chance of reaching out, and forming a brotherhood, in order to conquer our demons. In the old days, when a man was in need, his neighbours were there to lend a hand. Today? Men don’t even know who their neighbours are, yet alone are willing to help them. We truly have become more isolated than ever before.

    I was asked a question yesterday- Do you believe that people are inherently evil? Do you believe that they are born to deceive? It stuck with me. Although I wanted to believe that the answer was No, something held me back from answering. Something, stuck to me, in my head. 

    I do not think that we are born evil. I do not believe that we are bred with malice.

    I do believe, however, that reaching the top of a society requires us to betray our instincts. I do believe, that evil and success, go hand in hand.

Godspeed.
