At 23, I think I have seen enough pretence and superficiality to last me through my remaining life span.
And you would think, by now I should have got used to it. But truth is, I haven't.
I know there are some issues in life that cannot be explained, analysed or understood. However, my all time favourite question still remains this: Why.are.people.pretentious?
Why?
I just don't get it. I really don't.
They say its the only way to survive in this dog eat dog world. I disagree. In fact, dogs don't even eat other dogs, so where did that phrase come from?
If you ask me, this attitude is not one that has been passed down with each generation but rather the creation of the selfish, self absorbed Man along the generation chain. Now, who could that possibly be? One of us? Yes, very likely.
Why you ask? No..why I ask..I AM asking why.
And noone can answer.
Man are so utterly self absorbed that all they do is: 1. show off 2. show off 3. show off somemore 4. compare 5. look down 6. judge 7. lie 8. pretend and... 9. show off somemore.
Yes, this post is about a person I've recently met who fits my above description. In fact, this person has inspired me to write this entry.
