“Be well cultured” they said, but to who, when you grow to discover that some people would literally call you a pretender who doing the right thing, they could literally even bet on you, claiming that you would soon get tired of pretending, its just difficult for them to believe that your just being yourself. being cultured is not even in their dictionary needlessly to speak of being well cultured, really? is that even a phrase to them, what is wrong with being wild and crazy, being down to earth is the glory of the day, nothing is seen as bad except the good things ofcourse, so how can you possibly live the life your parents taught you, how possible would that be, you have to blend in right?

“Be Honest” they always said these to you, no matter what be truthful and honest, but really how realistic would that be when you have to survive, you also have to push your head in just like evryone else is doing so you can atleast feed yourself, you have to also do this ill things, oh now your disobeying your parents, what would they think of you if they find out, well “if” they find out, they probably might never find out right, but really how can you stay honest, when you will work so hard and the person you work for ends up cheating you and robbing you of your rewards, how can you possibly not cheat him back, are you the only person with good home training, everyone is doing it so does that make them bad people, oh please, I cant kill myself, no I most definitely can't, its called survival.
“Be Polite” well this is not so hard now, or is it? oh yes, it most definitely is, your trying to be polite to these customers but they just keep acting like they know it all, they are telling me of how educated they are, goodness have mercy, am doing my job, I know my job, why wouldn’t you just listen, its not easy, a little child speaks to an elderly person anyhow all because his/her parents are insanely rich, insanely rich, really they can afford whatever they would ever possibly want, now I have so much money, why do I need to be polite, I mean these people cannot add anything to my life, so why on earth should I see them as people with value, am not in their level, am way pass that, they should be the ones being polite, I have been polite all my life, why should I continue, I have seen the rough side of life or I have never known what it is to lack, why on earth should i be polite, or is it really necessary.
Did my parents tell me all these things because there are important and they have consequences or they told me cause its their duty to tell me, do all parents tell their kids all these things. Now am back to being 7 years old and all these de-javu in my heads, what are really the perks of being human, its the fact that you get to choose what is right or wrong, whether you should be happy or sad or angry or do whatever you like, well maybe just maybe your dear parents would be proud of you or not. YOU DECIDE.
