Addiction

More and more people have a range of many different addictions, Drugs, Pills, Alcohol, Sex, Entertainment, Wealth, Power, Lifestyle, Comfort, Simplicity, Etc.. Most are willing to sacrifice their own interests in the long run, Along with all the people in the entire world for just a taste of instant gratification. Between the choice of selflessness and selfishness the choice for a great majority is almost always a self-centered one. Selling out is the best definition I can think of to describe the affliction of addiction. Without a thought of others just the simple pleasure no matter how great the consequence. The very fact that so many people are so caught up with getting fucked up, Partying, An justifying their mindless actions while at that very same moment there are literally billions of people starving, Being senselessly murdered, And polluting the planet for money. It just shows there's a grave problem when most choose to distract, Ignore, And convince themselves there's nothing they can do about these problems. Until something drastic snaps them out of their greed driven trance they keep their heads firmly planted in the sand. Willful ignorance and biased opinions are a disease upon the earth spreading destruction, From the sheer lack of awareness and therefore action. Adults acting like children and the children growing up without ever being taught how to critically think and whats truly important. Instead there taught by the corporate profit scheme placed upon on the t.v., Radio, Music, And movies, That repeat the lies so much they believe that's all there is and are never able to really think for themselves, Others, Or anything that hasn't been programmed in their minds for them to be addicted too.
