Nightmares turn into reality

I go to sleep...I wake up...I go to work...I return home...I eat...I shower...I watch TV/DVD/play games/read a book...I go to sleep...I wake up...I go to work...I return home...I eat...I shower...I watch TV/DVD/play games/read a book...I go to sleep...
I wake up with a scream escaping from my throat, rushing out my mouth with intensity that I have almost forgot I ever had...Is this my life? Is this my future? And if the answer is - I sell my soul to be otherwise, please bid...- yes, who the fuck decided for me? I cope with reality very hard...I am unable to understand how basic and fundamental needs that we all have are sacrificed so that few that had the opportunity will increase their profit for !% unit...I cry out for you to listen, and yell with me so more will awake and maybe achieve a better place in the future...We are the losers, worse than the previous generation...At least they believed in something, they fought for something however wrong or destructive it was. And they had 1/4 of the resources available to us. And as we grew up, we identified these mistakes...And we commented on them. During our studies and our ignorant youth we made a stand...by watching TV reality shows, not reading to punish them, not being active in politics, not abiding to their rules, whenever we felt fit. Well, this is our doing. Unemployment rates, income per household and poverty level, and so on so forth are near those of the Great Depression somewhere around 19.. (I'll leave this empty so it'll jog your memory...) but who cares!?!? In my homeland it is more important if Paparizou won the Eurovision contest or if Kougias slapped a gay leader, or if X fucked Y while dating Z, and how inappropriate for me to be ignorant of the new life style trend, when at the same time I cannot cover my basic needs and I cannot pay my expenses...Silly me, I though those issues to be a tad more important than the other global issues that will after all make my life better!!!

FUCK OFF!!!

It is not an issue then why we are here now, but it is becoming an issue how to escape this miserable future that is waiting for us with eyes hazed from hunger and poverty, a toothless smile and a stench of decay, surrounded by small children looking like walking skeletons that will be sold to the first bidder...Are you sure we are doing ok? Are you positive that we cannot do anything to escape this awful fate? Are you sure that it is too late to make a difference? Did you ever thought about the real future? Even if you are not a stupid, ignorant rant like me, and you are of the majority that is using their 99% of their brain capabilities, you surely have felt it... Do you really want a world where you have no say over your decisions or your actions? Do you want your children to be born and already be in debt, while at the same time they will never see snow, cows, bears, pandas, dolphins, whales? If the answer is yes, please take a moment of your precious time and try to find your local suicide spot - you'll recognize it from the pile of bodies there - and take a minute to ponder: is it better to shoot myself in the head, in the mouth, or should I let that guy with the suit-looking at me like a raven-to do it for me?

After all, it's not like it is an important decision for you...The important thing is that you look good when it happens, right?

Nightmares always turn to reality. So do your dreams. Just have to figure out what you really want. Near death experience is perfect for that. Try Fightclub @ first ;-)

Trust me, I have had more than once the delightful experience of dying, and frankly I dont know why I escaped from the last two. As for "fightclub" experiences, I have many and I keep building my book... Nonetheless others need to realize that it happens. Maybe then they will realize that they can act on it...
