Modern Day Rebel


I am missing depth, drowning in the meaninglessness and superficiality of our modern society. Friendships are no longer quite as they used to be. We follow the lives of others through pictures; relationships are no longer intimate, no longer personal. We’re linked by ever weakening connections, slowly fading into nothingness. 

I am missing sincerity in the expressions we’ve so masterfully constructed to fit social expectations. All conversations seem the same. A repetition of shallow words we don’t care to understand and never cared to listen to. 
Wasted time on empty words, formalities, fake smiles occasionally exposed by unfiltered looks of honest eyes.
Those are our conversations. 
Instead of using our words to shape the world of tomorrow, we use them to fill the gaps of today and expect a generation more profound than ours. 

I am missing passion, joy and realness. I am missing struggle, pain and honest hurt. I am missing happiness, laughter and shining eyes.
I no longer care for language of conformity. 
It turns us into slaves of society.
Social echo is monotonous, it’s uniform, it gives no space for genuine expression and it’s toxic.

Dear reader,

For your heart is your crowning glory and your mind your weapon, don’t allow yourself to be a product. You are more than that.
Be a pioneer, be true to yourself. Let your words mirror your truth.
Rebel. Be different, be bold and be daring. 

Speak the words everyone is too scared to utter, speak your truth. 
Conformity is surrender. It is ceasing to resist insincerity. It is ceasing to defend what makes us human. Conformity is defeat.


In a world full of copies, dare to be original.



Joyfully yours,
Hanaa
