How do we know we are alive? how do we know we arnt robots? I really dont know.
People will say answers like we are humans because we have a heart, or we can love. We can feel pain. And we can make mistakes. But what if we are just programed to think that. Yeah. I mean we are.
We are programed. We are programed by parents and teachers and social networks and that kid down the street from you that thinks your a queer. Most of all we are programed by our Society. They teach us how to live the right way. Whether they do it in a nice way or not. People who live by these standards set by the media and your society are robots and i don't believe they are alive.
To be alive i think you have to learn to be your own human and do things for you and no one ells. That being said yes. i believe some of us are robots and some of us are truly alive. There is a difference among us. Some of us are to scared to venture beyond the norms and go into lands that are said to be un cool, unacceptable and inappropriate. Now im not telling you to be alive you have to venture into these lands and go get a tattoo, smoke weed, or take up drinking. And im not telling you to not do those things. What im trying to make clear is that you need to do things for you. Go against your programing and make the choice for your self. Fight the inner Robot!
And your parents. Now im not saying what your parents teach you is wrong and that you should be as a rebellious teenager and fight back. but what i am saying is that you should also have your own say and mind set based on your own values. Your parents are great! they are old rusty robots. They have seen the world and experienced life and lots of it. take there council they mean you well. Most of the time they will give you the best prigrams that will help you in life. Cherish those programs don't erase them they will do you good. Parents give you that sneak peak preview of life. But be sure to see the world through your own eyes and not just there's.
We are able to evolve! Humans can evolve and change. Maybe after reading that you have seen the world a bit differently. Robots cant do that, they see what they are programed, anything thing ells falls by the way side. That being said everyone can be alive every one can evolve and become truly alive.
your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
and the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it while you have it.
you are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.
