Hello Traveler!
in this journey, I'm going to bring you towards a land of perspectives.
Legacy.
specifically,
Bad Legacy.
--
a prologue
perspectives
what is perspectives?
now what people probably should know is that their perception are often misinterpret,
what we have going on in our head doesn't exactly point in on our own originality as an idea
loads of people have these bad perspectives, these close minded perspectives towards issues.
for example the closest that i have to endure are easily racism.
and by having a close relationship towards these kind of people
they transferred that idea to our mind.
I am not saying that you are wrong doing these things,
i mean there are loads of people and i can't possibly know everything right
but for God sake, this includes other persons too,
not only you, so please,
reminisce on this fact:
you are just one bit of this whole world.
so please do think of other people living here with you!
so, back to the topic, that perspectives aren't exactly the pin point idea from your head.
the main socialization unit we have is when we were born, and educated, as we are in our own family.
the education that was given by your family are of course different from my family,
which made us very different from one another.
then again, those "teachings" or legacy
can be a little too much for the social life which we are in right now.
so in this art form i am going to give you a few examples of the bad legacy that we have in our midst
just right about now.
what i have to say here not only are their my own critics towards the society that i have to live against
but also to the society i have to live in,
my family,
my friends,
my school,
and others.
this is my first piece on the "so called" perspectives:
superiority.
the closest we have to our hierarchy of rules are that people had to be old,
to subjectively know everything better than other people
the longer that people had live in earth
the smarter they get.
now is that really the case?
immortality had become so addictive to people
the mere image of being old had been related to wise.
the art that i've shown was easy,
be mouthful for what ideas you have.
interracial marriage
why not?
my family have always been a thing for this traditional stuff.
now I'm actually chinese
and we all know that chinese people are spreaded everywhere in the world.
and having the most population in the world,
we would think that we could have a more variety on the race
but no,
tradition kept us from having interracial relationship.
the art that i've shown was between dogs, they were kept to bred the same race
are we the same?
food for thought.
last but not least!
stereotyping!
bad tradition have its peak, stereotyping
chinese are penurious
americans are rude
indonesian are procrastinator
we came to this conclusion based on the people we look up to
our dearest told us these story
but do they really act these ways because of their race?
NO.
the art form i've given you are simple enough,
do you think that people with that kind of beard are terrorists?
no, i've found some of the kindest people have that beards.
please, don't judge a book by its cover.
let alone their race!
