Why Do We Keep Accepting a Broken World?

What Is This World We Call Home?
Chaos has become our normal.
We scroll past tragedies, defend them, and convince ourselves that “this is just the way it is.”
But it’s not fine.
It hasn’t been fine for a long time.
Somewhere along the way, we gave up the fight and surrendered our power to old philosophies that keep us small.
When Did We Forget?
We know how we got here.
History has been written in cycles—oppression, division, distraction, control.
But the deeper question is: why did we choose to stay here?
Why do we keep repeating the same patterns, expecting different results, blaming each other instead of addressing the root issues?
Where did our spirit go?
Where is the love, the creativity, the fire that once defined us?
Walking in Skins, Forgetting Our Souls
So many move like robots through their days, skin suits running on autopilot.
We call it freedom, but is it?
We’ve normalized a prison cell so subtle that most don’t even notice the bars.
And yet, we all have the key.
The question is, why don’t we use it?
The Insanity of Acceptance
Isn’t it madness to know there’s another way and still choose not to walk it?
To say “this is just life” when deep down, we know it isn’t? I feel the change stirring beneath the surface—it whispers in the cracks of the old world—but I don’t yet see it reflected in society.
That gap between what is and what could be is maddening.
The Collective Choice
We can’t force individuals to choose growth, healing, or awakening.
But what does it mean to choose differently as a society?
What would it look like if we stopped repeating cycles of division and blame and came together to demand more—for ourselves, for each other, for humanity as a whole?
A Call Back to Fire
This is not just “how it is.”
It can’t be.
We are creators, not prisoners.
The door is already unlocked.
What will it take for enough of us to remember who we are—our fire, our love, our power—and choose, together, to step into something new?
