With each passing day thoughts scurry faster and holding on to ideas is a fallacy. How to stop one’s ticking mind? The obsession of thoughts and pretenses of wisdom don’t plague everyone, do they? So many people seem to be so happy, so sure of themselves in simple humanity. Simple. Yes, to be American is so simple. Americans are not free, rather, they are made within the capitalist nation and sold at face value. To be American is to worry about appearances above morality, although appearing to be a moral is part of the appearance. Morality is a side effect of appearance though, and Rigorous figured if she were to live a life that was completely hers, she would have to defy this notion and wreck it completely.



How many people are actually wise? Who considers thoughts so vast Information is not to be savored, but processed. Humans are lazy machines, and it seems with the more work to consider the more forgetting is involved.



It was initially hard to consider the idea that men were needed for a happy life, but as she realized herself, her ability to succeed in the world and hold some kind of significance, or so she thought, she knew in a man’s world she had to do what men wanted.
