Pills

Maybe I dont want to be fixed the way you want me fixed. If you call this world a normal world, if your definition of normalcy revolves just around self preservatory capacities and functionality, then maybe I feel better in my abnormality.

“An abnormal reaction to an abnormal situation is normal behavior.” , maybe Viktor Frankl really did have a point saying this.

Sure you can ingest a pill which will block everything out, which will detach your thoughts from your feelings and turn you into a perfect "person", like the ones who don't care enough about things in the first place, and if that's the case I'm barely even a person, and I'm not sure if I want to be one.

The embodiment of "ignorance is bliss" , oh sure it is, but you forget the fact that ignorance isn't just bliss, it is luxury too, which comes through privilege.

While privilege itself necessarily isn't a bad thing, the current "normalcy" dictates one to use that privilege to climb up the social ladder, and trade pleasure for wisdom.

Sorry. I'd rather be the embodiment of all the labels you have ready for me, I'll use it all as a weapon, I'll break through.

The easier way out was never an option.
