In my own words, society is the 'nearest' people around us. Nearest herein means their presence in our lives both physically and mentally. This includes family, friends, church, school, work et cetera.
Society secretly takes advantage of man's innate desire for love and appreciation to drive us to their selfish interests. This results in the burial of our own dreams and desires.
As such, we never really achieve any fraction of our own desires and aspirations. We are occasionally pushed to a corner where we can't decide who is selfish! Us or the stupid society!
Here's why I think society is selfish and we're not.
Society only cares about itself. If you failed an exam or something, society would laugh at and scorn you. Friends will run away from you. School will expel you. Parents will call you a waste... etc
But if society fails, we're always the to help it. Church will ask for tithes and offerings. Family doesn't care about your work and commitments. You have to be with them for all birthdays, holidays, parties. It's all about itself.
Society doesn't appreciate the fact that we're all different from each other in our own ways. It has created a stupid belief that we're all the dance and have to live the same lives.
1. Get born and become property to your mother and father.
2. Go to school, read hard, get a degree.
3. Get work.
4. Get a fiance(e) and introduce her to family.
5. Get married at church/mosque.
6. Get children, grandchildren, etc.
7. Die.
8. Face judgement.
9. Go to HEAVEN/HELL.
You might notice that society chooses for you everything else apart from 9-heaven/hell. It ignores the fact that you've faithfully served it. Tirelessly trying to please it. Then when in the one moment when you badly need it, you can't find it.
The reason is simple. Cause when you die, society won't need you anymore.
How selfish of society!
