Everything we do is an act today. We do things but we do not mean them. We say things for the sake of conversation. We eventually live life only to show everyone that we are so great. We talk about inventing robots but somewhere we are the robots. We are the ones who are already forgetting feelings and relying on a scripted life.

We exaggerate situations. All our pain is bottled up so no one can see. Fake smiles adorn our faces filled with makeup. We try to hide ourselves and we gradually forget our true selves.

We make a big show of being simple and donate lots of money to charity only to get our names on the news page. We boast and brag about our “simple” lives. We veil the truth and soon a lie is a truth and a truth is a rumour.

There are a number of major crises in the world right now. We pretend to be concerned but now is the time to stop the pretence and forget the scripted play. We have to act for the future is in our hands.

It is not too late. But it will be if we don’t admit it now. We can please the media later. Right now we have to please the world so it doesn’t die.
