What Then? People tell me I need to do this, or I need to do that. What if I don’t want to do this or that? What then? Am I doing something wrong? Or am I simply expressing myself in my own way? People tell me to be quiet When I express my opinion. They say I am being uncouth and that I have no regard for other’s feelings. What if I am saying these things because of someone else’s feelings? Am I still being rude? Or am I courteous? I do not feel that I have to conform to the masses. I don’t have to fit into the mold that they have provided for me to automatically fit in to. Atrophy has become commonplace now. I have gained a sense of apathy for the people’s opinions of me giving my opinions. I will no longer be subject to their ill-mannered behavior. Do they not realize that while they tell me these things, they are becoming the exact thing which the disgust. So when it has become inevitable for them to take this transformation I say to them, “What then?” |
