Hello world...
Are we all just products of our environments now? Is it just me, or is everyone becoming full on sell outs? It's an every man for themselves type of situation unfolding and we only communicate to get what we need. Does anyone else feel cut off or out of place? I DO! It all seems so cold and unfamiliar.... and... fake.
Is this how we are living really? or is it that I just don't get it? I'm slowly falling into that category of people that feels like they don't belong... because I don't go along to get along. But maybe it's just my skewed perspective of what is going on. Our careers and Blackberries are more important than ourselves and those around us... how can this be?
Status has always had a hold on society... but has it always been to this extent? Or did I just grow up and remained oblivious to the obvious as a child? I am trying to figure out how I fit into this mold, although most of me thinks I am one not to be molded.
Do we know what we really seek? Is it really all about the job, and knowing "certain people" in "high places" so we can claim the "American Dream"? I think we have lost our peace of mind in the pursuit of such things. I want to be successful... but I don't want to sacrifice myself in the process. Can one exist without the other? Can any of us really say we haven't "sold out"?
Maybe this is all an illusion of my resistance to the process.....
