Traditional ... Stain

It is a tradition. Staying true to your roots and playing host to nothing but the same old games in society's pool. Stationary and reclusive, you try to smile for what you had and what you have to do. With all these guidelines for you to follow, why do you still have an eye pondering a forward thinking thought. From what is known, you can't think outside box? Couldn't this individual thought bring misery and pain if you were to step from the boundaries of a traditional standard. Hell, no one else can stand on their own two feet either. Progression is denied.

So what is it that keeps people in the same boat, the same lane, the same aisle looking at the same old box of cereal, keeping it plain and afraid to try that new brand with cinnamon flavor. That bland taste of wheat and a touch of honey makes that homemade cooking so much special. But you want a new flavor, maybe some pasta ... lasagna, or even a gyro.

For every so called traditional motto that could be used, there is the broad scale of what is stated, and how it has an affect of life. Ridicule is what comes from a traditional stain. Here are 4 major topics that get affected by all traditions.


1.) Art ... I bring art as the first topic. Art has it own definition apart from a book could explain. Art is something that comes to be different to many, and figurative to others. The art that someone explains as awesome might be bland to others, but it is still art. Acknowledgment of the fact that there is a creative swirl or motion of something spectacular even on the most minuet of scales still makes it creative, sensational and astonishing ... that is art. You want to badger someone's foray into another lane? You want to throw rocks and pillage the fact they believe this to be something special. I frankly consider your angst not worth a breath to mention, since it's probably a conjured fiction of a creative tale. Art comes in many forms:

Paintings
Sculptures
Poetry
Plays
Stories
Movies
Music
Theater

So no matter if its a Disney production of the Lion King on Broadway to a 5 star rated porno called Bikini Hoe Down ... art is of the eye of the creator. Don't like contemporary country, then dig a hole. Can't stand the fact that people express raw emotions in a freestyle rap or spoken word, then walk away. There is an audience for things other then secular thought of black and white.

2.) Innovation ... This is one that is plagued by the crowd, and bashed by the few. Innovation is what brings society closer to a functioning reality. The more that people innovate, the more they brings ease to things that are applicable to living an ideal lifestyle. We have innovation in many things like:

Transportation
Medicine
Communication

We only move forward when it comes to innovate they way we interact and react to things in our living/breathing society. Is there something wrong with going green, holding onto clean energy sectors that could provide safety and stability for an advanced society. Is it wrong to ask for updated ways of moving goods and services between rural parts of the country to cities, say a electrical or magnetic transportation grid between Montana and Chicago? What if I want to have a cure for my cancer using stem cell research or save a kids life from being paralyze for the rest of his life? Scared to the fact that cells are being tampered for the greater good? The ideal speaking of a common tongue cannot imagine the possibilities without opening a blind eye to a situation around. Well, hold onto your clogged arteries and smoke your life away. Theory is all left in the past when experiments and evidence prove the thought of living longer, staying healthy and breathing something other then the smog of an SUV is possible. Think before you equip your sights with a supposed enlighten provision.

3.) Acceptance ... There is one thing that bothers me more then not realizing the movement into a technological advanced society. You can have different taste in most things, but accepting another for standing opposed to what is 'divided' in the lines of society seems to be hard for most if not all people around. Lets slap someone for having a different kind of love. Lets badger someone who dresses that 'seems' to be consider a taboo. Can't stand the love among two men ... well tough, they probably live happier then you. Can't stand the girl in all black clothing, dying her hair 8 different colors and her boyfriend in fishnet stockings ... well who cares, they are probably less stressed at the situation then you. They aren't committing any murders or killing a baby. They are just living a lifestyle you find, unacceptable. You want to throw the book at them? Did you want your deity cure them of their sinful ways, I heard choking with water works ... not. The fact is, your pretentious thought is ignorant to the reality of, you are bothered by the idea of individuality. So before you go running wild fires because someone likes to be a DRAG queen, take a pill and go to sleep.

4.) Free Will ... Everything above and all that hasn't been mention trails to this center point. The idea, but more of the reality, is for people to have the freedom to do what works for them, the will to choose for themselves and not have the organized force push them away. The will to freely go about talking, laughing, playing and eating whatever you want is a decision that is expressed in a smile. Maybe things should be taken in moderation, maybe people should just not look in the direction of displeasure, but really, why does it matter to you? They aren't a bother, they aren't ripping your soul from dignity, they aren't asking you to take in the pleasure of eating a dead animal. A little far fetch, but people have the right to be free of thought and expression. Every tradition and social trend, that has grip the past, present and future tries to restrain this fact. Truth is, free will is the ultimate point of humanity. People think of the otherwise, and if you can just listen and be free with choice, maybe you'll smile without being told.


So you have a traditional standard, belief or common tongue. Don't be bothered by someone's lifestyle. To take pleasure in anger is to not be living at all. You will only find sadness in struggle, just learn to live outside the box. You will come to see that even for all that happens, beliefs are the same.
