THE GRAND LIE
August 8th, 2023 | San Fransisco, CA
I am in debt to man, but he does not own me. I am indebted to him, but he does not dictate my actions. I shall work for myself, and he shall reap the fruits of my labor. For a time. I shall free myself from man, and thus from myself.
Stressed as I’ve been by the rising and falling of numbers on a screen…
As if those numbers were in direct correlation with my value to myself and society. I understand the need to play the part. For now.
I was born into it. Ill prepared for it. Enticed and seduced by it. Only up close did I see it for what it truly is.
The grand lie. The ultimate fallacy.
The belief that you, as you are, are not enough. That you must supplement. In a place where everything is supplementary.
I am done believing the lie.
