You stand still my friend.. Yet the world spins around you!

A quick look around you will have you agreeing with me on what I am about to write. The only factor that doesn't change around us is change!! Change has never been wholly necessary.. but if you think what the most saleable item in all of human history is... it's change. Scan the history of the world.. people change.. leaders change.. philosophies change.. places of staying change.. modes of travel change.. even Gods change. The decadence here is that change now has been reduced to a mere marketing tool by manufacturing moguls to service their own selfish needs. The most important of issues, those which should forcefully be changed are kept constant. World terrorism, hunger, disease.. leave these aside and think a bit more personally.. the need to excel, to distinguish oneself has been replaced by the need to be part of a crowd.. to belong.. normalcy say some, mediocrity say I. Nobody wants to stand on the shoulders of men anymore, although now it seems we have an over-abundance of shoulders.

Change begets change. Change in one field necessitates changes in other fields. Now since my life revolves quite a bit around music.. my example shall pertain to music. Change in musical tastes result in a change of clothing.. Metal had body hugging pants and long flowing shirts and longer hairdos.. Grunge had torn jeans and t-shirts, Hip- hop has baggy pants and just about everything else. Turning on the television now to view any contemporary program is almost like visiting a circus.. Baggy shirts and trousers.. I thought that was what clowns wore.. an everyday circus indeed.

The necessity for such massive changes stems from the one defining factor of today's youth.. "The Wannabe".. Packaged by the cutting edge machination of present-day realism, the wannabe is a species completely overlooked by Darwin's theory of evolution. We really are turning time around.. All of us wanna look the same.. speak the same language.. and no it is no longer English( "Wassup bro!" hardly being the fare for Oxford or Collins).. I think that we are ready to make the next giant leap for mankind and return to being monkeys.. Now that's change.
