You Can be Whatever you want to be and other Lies.

We live in a world where people put so much unnecessary pressure on themselves that it's almost cruel. It's a crazy place when we think that things are supposed to be a certain way because that's what we've been told our whole lives.  We are told from the time we are little that when we grow up, we can be whatever we want to be.  We can do whatever we want. Our parents, teachers, pretty much all of the people that as children, we are supposed to look up to.  It is not until we grow up and see that the whole deal is a huge damn lie that we are told to make us feel better, but it only makes it hurt worse when we get older and realize that all that shit isn't true at all.   It takes more than a dream to get what you want, sometimes it takes money we don't have, sometimes it takes time that we don't have and sometimes it's such a far fetched dream that it's unattainable no matter what you do.  I just think that it is kind of shitty to allow children to think that the world is some easy place with white picket fences and men that are always romantic, because the world is not that way at all.
