An Undeserving Fool

An Undeserving Fool

I might be a fool with no talent at all, but does that give you the right to deprive me of dignity and autonomy. You have injected as much misery in me just because you can and you will! Does the undeserving require less to survive? I am still a human that requires respect, love and warmth to survive. Drifting from place to place away from home, I wish to find tranquility. Yet, the society continues to prosecute me just because I am worthless and defenseless. I ponder in my mind when I will find tranquility and a home for a fool like me. Is a fool destined to be prosecuted and deprived of human rights?

Life as an Honest Man

Life as an Honest Man

            It is a shame to be an honest man in the modern society where the outcome is the number one priority. No one cares about the input any more. Hard work is a thing of the past. Welcome to the new world where people will do nothing to achieve their goals. This is illustrated in the cheating rate in my high school, but could you blame them for cheating? After all, the society only wants result. I as an honest man who do not cheat is prosecuted by the society for not cheating.  Who should I blame the society or myself for not cheating? The most shameful of all is that teachers, former cheaters, are condemning students for cheating. One might ask how could a hypocrite be convincing? The world has become such a disgraceful place to dwell in!
