“NOBODY KNOWS WHEN
THE LAST GOODBYE IS.”
WHAT SOCIETY WANTS from us is a very long list of
things. It is often known as cultural and traditions and when you strive away
from those traditions, you are often seen as wrong and sometimes you become the
forbidden person in your society. It is hard to keep up with these rules and
still do what you want. It is almost impossible to please yourself and the society
in the same time. At least these things are hard for me, for others it is piece
of cake and can be done without thought. In the same time you can never say
that you are right and they wrong or the other way around. There is no right or
wrong, there is just an easy way around it and that is to follow the society rules
and take your daily fix of society.
One of the things that society wants from you is to talk as
they would want you to talk. They would want you to talk in a certain language,
certain voice tone and even say certain words. For example here in Egypt society would want
you to talk in Arabic, but not any Arabic, but the modern Arabic language and
to say the cool words that are up to date, because if you said a words that is
not that modern they would consider you old fashioned. Also society would wait
for you to say a lot of English words in the sentence, but not too much, you
wouldn’t want society to see you as a rich person that is not from around here.
If you are a female, then it is harder, society waits for you to speak so soft
and what we calls here in Egypt a Lebanese kind of way, but still you have to
be a little bit aggressive because otherwise you would be seen a burden and not
a strong girl, but keep in mind you don’t want to lose you feminine touch when
you talk aggressively because in the end of the day, you are a girl.
The way of speaking is not the only demand that society
waits from you, society waits from you to say what pleases them, the exact same
words they wants to hear. Your family waits for you to say that you are so
happy with things that doesn’t makes you happy, in a relationship your partner
waits for you to say that you want to be as he pleases or that you are sorry
for a mistake you didn’t do and usually not a mistake, but what society doesn’t
wait for you to say is complaining about the things you don’t want in your life
or say your dreams that are considered too good to be true or just think out of
the box. Your parents wouldn’t want to hear that marriage is the last thing in
your mind and that finding the job of your dreams is more important.
In the end of the day What Society Wants Is Not To Be
Yourself.
