Nothing that we have been told is real… our whole lives have been a fabrication… destined towards slavery.
It’s St. Patrick’s Day and I’m supposed to celebrate the freakin’ Irish today. I have nothing against the Irish… then again, I really care nothing about them either…because I care about individuals and not some group, “nationality”, or religion… but here we go again. I can’t seem to get away from people being “proud” of who they are rather than what they DO.
Yeah, it’s cool…green beer, corned beef, drinking all day… I can’t argue with that… but what does it really mean?
I’m not trying to stop celebrating certain things… because anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE a PARTY…but come on….what are we celebrating? Does anyone stop to think? Nationalism. That’s what we celebrate. Group-ism…that’s what we celebrate. I can’t stand that shit.
If I were Emperor for the day, I would declare Universe-Yurii Day, where everyone paints, plays, and acts like their real selves. I would declare Universe-Joe Day wherever is honest, intelligent, strong, and hilarious. I would declare Universe-Kiersten Day where everyone acted intelligently, pushed themselves to their limits and had curiosity for the world around them.
Irish Day, St. Patrick’s Day, is just an excuse for all of us to be the alcoholics (or-anything-we’re-addicted-to-type-of-people) that we are… sans guilt. I’m annoyed by what we celebrate… and I have been for awhile.
St. Patrick’s Day? Really? A Roman Catholic/Church of Ireland relic?
St. Valentine’s Day? From Medieval Times?
Christmas? Easter? For real? Watch Zeitgeist.
The Fourth of July? Patriotism? For what?
I just want to know what I’m supposed to celebrate. I don’t care about the “nation”. I have no feelings of kinship with any “race”. There’s nothing for me to celebrate. Why can’t I just celebrate every day? Why do I need some holiday, either national or non-national, to celebrate? My life is good. Actually, even with all of the minor occurrences…it’s great. Can’t I just celebrate life…each moment? I kinda do that anyway.
