It's easy to call someone out for being weak, mediocre or plain stupid, but what then when you have to do some introspection? The sudden pause, the silence it all spews something, fact is humans are meek and because of this they'll always submit to higher powers and feel the need to be governed by such, Afterall it's part of our nature we can't run away from it, unfortunately for us our need and desire to be controlled will eventually mean the death of us.
Let's take a moment and pause right there, how can one's submissive attitude be detrimental to their progress? Well the answer lies in the reason for their submissiveness.. don't get me me wrong, respect and humility should be practiced, but not out of fear but out of the fact that the people you show it to actually earned it.
Allow me to paint a picture in your minds, the things we do on a daily say something about us and our priorities, we value some things more than others and because of that, we hold other things in great prestige and then some with no regard whatsoever, then we talk about being fair whilst that in itself is subjective... So we can't really say we are strong individuals while we are still binded by terrestrial mentalities and perceptions.
When we do realise that we are but a grain of sand in a vast, unending desert that is this universe, we will begin to comprehend and chase after knowledge and understanding that seems centuries ahead of us. When we decide not to be bound by these ever-changing and so called "laws and constitutions" that's when we'll discover what the human race really is. Have you never looked up in the sky and asked yourself "If really we are an intelligent race, how come we haven't even come close to communicating with other civilizations in the universe?" If really we are an intelligent race we should've been able to combat hunger, disease and poverty by now.
Here's Allen, a curious young man who the human race found as a threat because they couldn't deal with someone who thought beyond what the feeble-minded civilization we call humans could. They called him all sorts of names blasphemous to his nature and being, they weren't worthy of being in his presence but just because of their defensive nature, they rebuked him and shut him out.
The journey to self discovery doesn't start with you, it starts with the pessimists because only they can fathom who you really are and what you are capable of. Don't be deceived, the system will always tell you otherwise, that's what it's there for but it takes someone who really knows themself to go beyond that and manipulate the system into elevating them, in any case Allen was just a young clueless and curious man, what was he capable of? Maybe you concluded this story in your own way before it even began, maybe you've reached that point where you can piece together the rest of this text, maybe.. but maybe is an invalid word.. rather stick around and see if you don't get enlightened by what will unfold moving forward, maybe through his journey you'll also find the answers you seek.
