i dunno i am a free thinker too, and i have pretty radical beliefs. but quite frankly every time i talk to anyone, friend or family member they want to talk about credentials, ie. how good your grades are, are you graduated, what awesome jobs you have lined up. i personally dont give a shit about these things but when i live in a world where all that matters is the size of your resume, i cant help but compare myself and feel like an inadequate loser
for example i am not graduating this year because i fucked up a semester a few years ago while dealing with crippling anxiety disorder, so everyone i talk to i have to explain why i am not graduating and they all make me feel like a fucking loser idiot. in reality i just dont give a shit about grades and hate school, but at the end of the day, whether or not i care about the meaning of grades, i am going to be infererior because of my lower grades.
thats just how society is... its a rat race and people are willingly caught up in it. college is the opitimy of it... brown-nosing cockbags
i want to get away from society but quite frankly i dont fucking know how, all i know is that i need to make money if i want to do anything, so im stuck in the system that i despise so much but now i have shot myself in the foot for being against the system since highschool and not caring about my "career future"

i hear ya bro...society is a self-perpetuating machine that narrows people into cattle. i gave up on that bullshit a long time ago. the trick is not getting caught up in the bs judgements and expectations that people have and find what makes you happy. if living in a forest in seclusion is your thing, do whatever you need to do to live it. many people have done so, getting the fuck away from this crazed society is not a new idea.
ive found my peace with the evils and bullshits of society and have chosen to live within it, exerting my preferences while still working in the system and allowing it to sustain me. but thats a choice everyone makes.
im a big believer in following ones desires, i think that leads to the ultimate happiness in life. im also a believer that shit needs to get done. theres more to being fulfilled than sitting around all day doing bullshit, which ive done plenty of. it doesnt fulfill me. what fulfills me is growing as a person and finding ways to interact with society that are positive and interesting to me. leaving my comfort zone and all that shit. we're too fuckin comfortable here in the states.
anyway now im rambling. basically what i want to say is that maybe you should just focus on what fulfills you and do everything you can to get it. if your doing that your too busy to worry about how shitty other peoples lives are, or how much better they are in comparison. your just focused on you and being you and doing what you enjoy.
