Society

Why do we do it? Why, as humans, supposedly the most advanced and civilized species, why do we play this game called life? Why do we subject ourselves to living by "society's standards" and conform to fit the mold meant for us?


We are society.


We are, and always have been, the ones creating the nonexistent pressure we put upon ourselves. The pressure to look a certain way. The pressure to act a certain way. The pressure to love a certain way.


We can change this.


Generations of the past have failed us. We have to be the ones to act. We have to fight for our voices to not be silenced. We have to stand up and declare that we are not going to 'just accept the way the world is.' You and I. Together.


We are the revolution.
