Frustrations

It's raining again..... another dark and gloomy day......

The world just do not have a hi tolerance for creative people.
It is growing increasing frustrating to wake up everyday to constant nagging from the people around you. They think you are not doing enough and keep expecting more from you.

Study harder..... get better grades...... get a girlfriend...... find a good job........ get married.......

The social norms are getting more and more disturbing. Success is measured by the size of the car you drive,how beautiful your gal is or the number of zeroes in the bank account etc etc. People who throw caution to the wind and try to pursue their artistic inclinations are often frown upon. The system works in such a way whereby there is a common ideal way to live and anything different will render one and outcast.

Expectations only go up and never goes down...... it is like a helium filled balloon....... you are only expected to float upwards and nothing more.

I don't think I do well as a surbodinate. Never been a good listener and it seriously cramps my style. I have my own way of doing things and people hate me for that. I get easily irritated and unable to perform my best when I have to supress my creativity .

Even as a kid, I was not happy just sitting at the sidelines being a supporter. I am someone who wants to do something with my life but 99% of the time, people just hold me back and it seriously cramps my style. A phoenix cannot act like a little bird forever....... it is destined to fly to the heavens but when people keep telling you that you can't....it is disheartening.I have enough of all
this........

I Wanna fly....I wanna fly..... I WILL FLY....I WILL FLY!!!!

Maybe deep down inside, I am just a frustrated artist who is chained down by what the world wants and expects..... but I WILL FLY....... cos I know I can!
