Sides of Perspective

So I think, I’m getting the hang of this thing, life.
If I’m not wanted, or if I don’t want, that’s all that needs to be done.

Learning is an interesting thing, there are subjects, topics or issues that may be too sensitive to learn in school, consensus says, let’s keep it away from them completely.
School is about facts, figures, concepts, and variety.
Because of the lack of variety in schools, kids are getting the same education, but not exactly what they need.
Some need to hear those “banned situations” those unspeakable situations that should be shared. It is a good business for psychoanalysts since after a lifetime of denial and repression, everyone will need therapy when they’re older.
I don’t exactly agree with the way information is presented.
I don’t exactly agree with the direction that society is happily heading towards, and is in.
Consumerism, wealth, greed, paranoia (actual and not just perceived) these are marketed and distributed provoking the fear of terrorists (actually a vague concept that can be, and has been, narrowed to one culture, religion, or other skewed conceptions that deter from allowing the “individual).
This is not the all of it though. This is false security. And, many faces wear darkness.
None are aware of its danger or presence, think not to worry and worry about things that are of no critical importance.
Ladder, tree, steps of civil society
Up and up we climb, to the top, this race is timed
Pulling and wanting, and griping and hassling,
Rank and authority is pulled, with a flick of your role
Visa, American Express, Wedding Bling and earpiece talking…
“Uuum, ok, give me a second here, I’m going to order.
I’m at Starbucks…I’m going to get some coffee…
Ummm ok, let me blah blah,…” ps, I am still standing here
Am I to watch and listen? Avert eyes and distract attention pretending to be not listening to the conversation that you can’t help but hear and feel that it is necessary to pretend that you don’t hear, and still be customer service oriented.
So, from now on, FOR THEIR COURTESY, I will not be taking orders from people who are on the phone.
I will avert my eyes not as a pretense, but because I really am not paying them any never mind because I’m in process of other things. And if I’m not, thanx for the motivation, I’m going to move myself and start immediately.
Finish my Education, Maintain my Creativity.
Customer service is my means to my end, as it should be.
Already have seen many sides of humanity.

"...since after a lifetime of denial and repression, everyone will need therapy when they’re older." So true my friend. So true! Your words of wisdom make me think about what's real and important - Gina B. :)
