The Deceptive World We've Created!

"But I'll wear my heart upon my sleeve. For daws to peck at: I am not what I am." - William Shakespeare (from the Othello play)

"I am not what I am", is a clear-cut pointer to what this post is about. The world isn't smooth!

Like those dudes in the pot, we think we've outsmarted nature, when in reality we are destroying what we've built.

It is quite unfortunate that deceit have helped most *shmucks* go on with life.

-Fools are elected into public offices.
-Idiots inherits or own big empires.
-Ambitious and devouring beasts run companies.
- Criminals walk around freely.
- The innocent are either in jail, hospital, or probably dead!
- The poor(who can't afford medical care) fall sick more often.
- Most rich men (who made money legitimately) are seen as evil.
-Illiterates teach brilliant students.
- ......perhaps you can continue the list.

Who or what is to blame? I guess we can find the answer in history. But why does the world suck?

Oh! before you continue. There's something you should know about me:

It's not a perfect world and I'm no perfect writer; it'll be stupid I claim to be the best writer, when in fact I make mistakes like its a mistake-party--- Not too much though!

Look around you and you'll see lies everywhere. This can be seen mostly amongst politicians, executives, religious leaders and businessmen. No doubt, the common man, unfortunately, who's more affected, stupidly lives like that too.

I'm glad the air isn't commercialized because it would had being devastating to witness 'creative' lies; I guess we would had probably heard things like: "eerh...due to global warming, the world's air is at a critical level. Thanks to our scientific breakthrough we've been able to create 'purified air' for about X dollars per year". Believe me! most businessmen and government will do anything to retain their power.

Our ambition and pride makes us adorn ourselves with transient values, which has contributed to our current global. (economic and natural) crisis.

Organizations flood us with exaggerated advertisement and publicity stunts in a bid to persuade us to kill ourselves while they have increased profits.
We're destroying humanity and this planet by most of our actions. I believe honesty will go a long way in helping us stand firm, for a start.

Tobacco isn't good for the health, yet it sells like crazy! Coke(not cocaine) is just carbonated water and sugar; however, branding has made it a holy grail.

At times I see people and wonder, "are they nuts?" Go to seminars, symposium, church services and any social gathering, you'll know what I'm talking about.

Have you ever seen a gorgeous chick who tells you she's damn good at singing and the next thing you hear is a frog-like voice? Why do we elect fools as leaders?

In my field(Computer Programming) I've come across a lot of people like that. They pride themselves as genius in their locality(or neighborhood) but in reality can only 'pass data to a variable'.
It's awful when this falsely-branded people fail when called to solve a problem or join a conversation.

Below are just a few reasons why you shouldn't lie or make a fool out of yourself :

- What goes around comes around: The world sucks at making anybody feel bad, therefore don't look for the world's trouble by fooling people.

- You wouldn't know your actual level of professionalism.

- People wouldn't trust as you will most times look too good to be true.

If you aren't cut out for something leave it! Don't force yourself to play-along.
Its your life for ***** sake! Come on!

When you make a fool out of yourself you're making a fool out of your world, and you'll be branded a fool.

The question is, what can you do to make your 'little' world a safe-haven for future generation?
