It's an all-known fact that we must walk our own path, make our own mark, choose our own destiny and so on and so forth. Although we know all these over-rated life statments, why do we always find ourselves feeling stuck. As if there's always something holding us back from accomplishing whatever it is we are itching for. There's always something to break your spirit just when its starting to build up. Is there a higher being, whether it be a god or some extra-treresstrial being, intentionally making things harder for us? And if so, is there a purpose for all this or are we just a reality tv show for this higher source?

The human race is powerful. As a race, we have proven ourselves to be nothing less than great. We've turned so many things around whether it be industrialization, philosophy, art, or religion. We've made life more comfortable and connected. Yes, the human race is amazing, to say the least. This however, raises a crucial question. If men, collectively, are praiseworthy; why is it that the average individual tends to be an asshole? It's as if, as a group we're great but individually, we're just persons who don't give a shit. Has humanity become so obsessed with self-image that the only reason why we're great as a group is because we're all putting up faces to impress the exact same hypocrite beside us. This idea seems very cynical but you cannot ignore that it is possible. Although there are a few good eggs in the basket, it doesn't change the reality that most of the eggs in the basket are rotten and two-faced.
