dear jess,
There are few basic things that the species called a human being needs. Food, water, oxygen and of course the curse of recognition. It isnt enough if we have suceeded in attaining an achievement- job, our degree, more money, but people must know about it. Specifically 'other' people.
Its seriously interesting. Think about it. It isnt enough if we are good friends with someone, or had a blast at some event last week or we are dating someone. Nope. Everyone else has got to know about it, then we can go on living.
Its not necesarily a 'im showing off attitude' but somehow people just need other people to know. Its this burning desire that we need to tell everyone else that we are special or that there's something really exciting happening in our lives, when probably in comparison to someone elses we dont realise that it isnt interesting, and probably even pathetic.
If we are not recognised, we don exist. If a tree falls in the jungle and no one sees it? No recognition means you dont exist. If no one knows you were in a play, you have a hot shot job or even if you're having a really bad time, you dont exist.
Have you ever notice that when someone dies, no matter how normal that person is, everyone suddenly becomes the dead mans bestest friend? Everyone somehow wants to be associated with him and everyone wants to be recognised as "knowing him."
Its a sad world we live in. And thats how the blog will survive. You need to tell. We need to pry into other peoples lives to either exclaim, silently smirk, be jealous of or challenge to be more recognised.
who?
