I woke up today and thought, "what& #39;s the point?" When I& #39;m older there& #39;s only 5 day work weeks to look forward to until retirement. That& #39;s life being stolen from us. It& #39;s simply inhumane to me. I need to find an alternative because I refuse to throw away everything like that.
Why should I live for the weekend in my prime years of life? I want to experience everything, see the world, fall in love and do everything. Instead I could potentially be churning out labor for some faceless corporation. Why? Why? Why? I wasn& #39;t born to work.
Life is incredibly short if we continue to live like this. That& #39;s not pessimism or me being bleak but quite literally our time and livelihood are being stolen from us. Our most precious commodity, time, is being squandered.
This isn& #39;t any one person& #39;s fault, of course. What sort of revolutionary acts are you expected to do when the majority of your energy is spent chasing a paycheck? Institutions have saw to it that this horrific cycle is allowed to continue with little to no consequences--
--for those in power. Those who profit off the backs of our time and labor will see to it that we stay cogs in their labor machine forever. And it& #39;s simply miserable to step back and think about. What& #39;s the point of it all? I don& #39;t think I& #39;ll ever know.
