trying to manage my anger but i can't seem to shut my mind off or isolate myself away from what is pissing me off.
Nothing has happened to me where folks have pissed me off directly. It's that i'm just getting very irritated @ the things that i see when i'm web surfing. It's basically the everyday things that i see which are basically circulated off of bullshit. The same bullshit that fuels the ignorance that folks seem to live and thrive off of without realizing it and the same ones that causes folks to hate themselves. Folks talk about "peace this, peace that" but the honest truth is that they don't mean anybody but themselves well. Then they wonder why folks are angry as fuck, passive aggressive, walking around with health problems, or going nuts and etc. It's not okay. It never was okay. If you are content with the way things are where as you turn on the tv and you see commercials, tv shows and you basically get the message that "this is what is acceptable. This is what's not acceptable. If you don't match this right here, you are a have not", then you're either ignorant or you really need to read up and pay more attention.
Man, i hate to say this but just reading some books, being aware of certain things and seeing how certain things work simply because of the little things that shouldn't matter just gets me raging mad. How does one not become depressed or simply withdraw themselves from the world seeing this shit? Geez. Someone is born into a world who they are and they're basically told that "you have to be this way, compromise who you are and what you want for yourself in order to survive or you'll get punished for it". The fucked up thing is if you're gay, you're black, you're a woman, you're short, you're handicapped, and etc, you're already @ a disadvantage because society looks down on that as being "unacceptable" for whatever reason. You simply are put in a box and are told that you have to accept it. Fuck that. They say folks are crazy when they rant and get mad but seriously, who in their right mind can be comfortable knowing the real reason why things are the way they are and being told to "deal with it". It's not right. Just because i'm a guy doesn't mean that i have to watch sports, drink beer and do "masculine" things. I have the right to do whatever i want without being judged or shitted on. If i want to watch "my little pony", "play around with barbie dolls", "listen to hard rock and metal", "drink pink lemonade", and drink a broke down car, can i do that shit in peace?
If i ever have a son or daughter, i'm going to tell them to be who they are. I'll buy him a barbie doll, a truck and whatever. I won't push him into a gender role, race role and etc and like them be who they are without societal influences but i'll teach them to be aware of the world around them since this world tends to eat people alive and shit.
