Next Stop: Hell



Picture source: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/375909900127787015/



We lose sight of our purpose and end up in a Cul-de-Sac.  We confuse responsibility with meaning, mindless distraction with living a dream, and we bleed empty hours to feed another's greed, whereas 8 – 5 should just be the means to reaching fulfillment.  Look at the Xanax face next to you, those racing high-speed through suburban streets, the frantic revelers intent on taking every social drug available to them on a Friday night… I cannot believe that to be anybody’s dream?  But then why are so many people doing it?

  1. There are lot of things we lose sight of, feelings we neglect, dreams we stop chasing, and and above all else we let ourselves down, over and over again.

  7. May be it's because we crave new experiences all the time. But 8-5 builds a structures that doesn't let fresh air in, or at least that what it seems like. So, we take shortcuts, feed our mind instant gratification. But who knows.. :)
    Amazing write again. :)
