Another short musing on culture and my current position.

Those once deemed failures

Are now those to whom I look

For inspiration.

For motivation.

Strange how time

Changes your perspective.

Strange how need of money

Strips you of all pride.

Strange how pride is

So often seen as both 

A good thing and

A bad one.

Strange how vanity is worshiped,

But to actually be vain 

Is a damnable sin.

How curious our society is.

How much I long for 

When days were simpler.

Thoughts were less deep.

Less frightening.

Yet I relish this

Philosophizing.

And cannot stand

Shallowness.
