I want to confess,
Yes!
And I actually want to speak the unspeakable in society.
People don’t like to be honest enough,
We don’t like being honest with ourselves,
let alone being honest with others.
We don’t like to say things openly
for fear of offending others.
A society that is driven by fear!
A generation that survives on the validation
of other people’s opinions about them!
And I think—
That’s wrong.
And what is right
is right anyway!
Even if it offends people!
We are living in fear,
Fear of fear,
Fear of failing in the things we need.
Fear of disappointing others.
We are living not our own lives,
but to prove we are better than others.
We fear failing in our careers
and end up messing it all up.
We fear failing in marriage
and create more hate than love.
We think having flaws is not okay.
We fear being seen as bad people
and end up being hypocritical.
A generation that is judgmental.
And, funny enough,
people only get to judge
what they see about us!
Do we turn left
when there is nothing right?
Or do we turn right
when there is nothing left?
Are we true to ourselves,
or are we deceiving ourselves?
Are we doing the things
we need to do?
Or are we doing the things
people want us to do?
Are we humble,
or is it pride within us?
A generation
that doesn’t know what it wants
or even how it wants it.
It’s just UNSPEAKABLE! 🤍
