We all know we are part of the rat race, a slave to society, so if we know this then why do we willingly participate when we know the end result. Even if you 'win' youre still a rat.

So what is the great alternative? Joining a community of recluse misanthropes?

If we all know this then why the fuck are we still doing it? We have known this our whole lives. Its like living in limbo, free enough to make choices but never really free enough to make important choices...

I struggle with this every day.

I always ask why I keep doing it.

But then I think....it's all I know how to do, it's all most people know how to do...how do you just stop and live in another way when you don't know any other way to live?

They got us locked in, it's conditioning, this is how we have been trained to exist.
