Plastic World
N: Listen! Take off your masks! Take off what you think you have to be and become yourself. Notice that none of you are “perfect” , we all have “faults”. Don’t you see that you all look the same! Clones. You are meant to be unique: tall, tiny, long hair, short hair, brown eyes or green eyes we all have the same worth.
G3: We are perfect!
G2: Stop with that nonsense, who do you think you are?!
N: That’s the point! Who are we?! Every day we put on a mask to cover up our uniqueness and our personalities to become one of many. We hide who we really are to become a ghost of what we are to be accepted
G2: You are revolting
G1: You are no longer one of us!
N: Why does no one listen? I’m telling them how important it is and they don’t listen. What can I do to make them understand what a pain full fake world we are living in.
D: I see that you are trying. Be patient, just as I was with you. Tell them over and over again until they can’t close their ears anymore until they can hear the screams from the people suffering.
N: That’s what I tried. I talked and I screamed for them to come back from where they hid. I don’t know what more I can do if they don’t want to listen. I know I have to keep fighting and igniting, but I’m so tired, so tired
D: Please Nadea fight, fight with what you have for what they don’t. Don’t give up, you’ve spread the seed. Now it’s time to make it grow.
N: I know, I know I have to keep going. But what’s the point, if they won’t wake up?
D: Nadea you have to realize that even littlest actions have reactions. Look around do you see all the faces that have the slightest bit of change in them, you might not see it from the outside but the energy has shifted.
N: As I left my mask behind, I left my opportunity to hide , to ignore but now I can feel, feel freely. I can be emotional. I am not a robot. . I am human and I have humanity in me. I feel it growing the longer I am free of the jail that my mask put me in. It was not my mask but ours because we all wear it, if thinner or thicker. We all know the feeling of not saying what you think, not acting as you want to. But the time has come to free ourselves from that jail. To step out of our comfort zone into the world. The world that is so full of laughter, love, dreams, hopes as well as tears and pain. But the world is not black and white: It is full of rainbows, colors dark or light full of everything and nothing is better than something else. It’s hard to see but harder to play blind. So open your eyes, choose freedom over being admired, choose authenticity over being a mindless doll controlled, by, by who? Who is it that controls us who tells us what is right or wrong, we say society, but who is that? Is it not all of us trying to fit in and in the process breaking the others as they break us. So think. Think about your actions and their outcome. Think about who you are and who you want to be. Think about your place, on this beautiful piece of hot stone and water on the edge of a massive galaxy
