What Is Natural?

What is natural? To be honest with you, it's a great question. Not because i care to you should care whether or not some piece of art is real or not or if someones body is real or not. The point of this question and article is to get you to think about what really is supposed to be happening and what isn't. Now, I know it's still not making very much sense yet so let's start with an example. 

We believe it is natural, okay, normal for a 20 year old to still act like a teen, we believe it is okay for a 25 year old to still be figuring life out by partying every weekend and doing drugs. But are those things really normal? Does every 20 year old have to be stupid? You see what I'm getting at? Alexander the Great conquered the most of the world on horseback in his 20s. Age is no reason for someone to act stupid. And yet society allows people to act stupid for whatever reason and so we act stupid. The 20 year old is made to believe that they can continue to be a failure for as long as they want, so long as there is a 2 in front of their age. And so what do they do? They do just that. 

So I want you to really think and ask yourself, what is natural, what is normal, and is it really normal? Is being rude really cool? Is doing drugs, really cool? Is acting stupid cool? It's not. Being your best self is cool. Following your dreams is cool. These are the natural things. The rest are just lies disseminated on to the public for corporational to profit. 

I don't know exactly how you live so I can't tell you what to do or not do. But just keep this in mind the next time some habit or custom of yours keeps failing you or producing wry results.
