The Freedom To Create

Hey guys, I'm sorry it's been a while, I've been really ill recently and just lost all my energy, but I'm back now.

Something I want to talk about has been making me think a lot recently, and it's something that drives me insane.

The freedom to create.

Stereotypes, rules, 'normal' life prevents us from being as creative as we want to be.

Basically, stereotypes make me really angry. If you want to listen to metal music, you aren't a mosher or an emo, you're you. If you like wearing ugg boots, taking selfies and instagram, you aren't a hipster, you're you. IF YOU LIKE DOING WHAT YOU LIKE, YOU ARE YOU AND NEVER LET ANYBODY CHANGE THAT.

Personally I am sick to death of people telling others they can't be something because of a stereotype they've been labelled. At school I always listened to heavy metal, a few people told me that I couldn't like Olly Murs, and it's not right. I can be whoever I want to be. People who say, oh you can't be a drummer, you're too hipster, you can't like this band, they're too mainstream for someone like you.

IT ISN'T RIGHT AND NEEDS TO STOP.

When did we become a community where all we do is follow each others movements, likes and wants? When did people forget about their own dreams, their own interests, their own happiness. For goodness sake, never EVER give up your happiness to be accepted by someone else, it's one of the worst mistakes you will ever make.

When you begin to pretend to be someone you aren't, the real you fades out, you forget about it, then you become a fake shell of yourself.

Because the 'Normal' perspective of people, you have to behave in a certain way. You have to act just like them to be accepted. I hate that so much, because there shouldn't be a 'social norm', just be yourself.

If you have an idea, do it. Create something beautiful. If you want to make videos on youtube, go for it, do that and don't care what people think. If you want to write and be spontaneous then go for it. If you want to stand out of the crowd and be yourself then by all means do it. Never give away your happiness.

When you finally realise that, I'm sure you'll be happy. I believe we were born to create, all of us. Create love, create life, create art, create music, create fashion, create smiles, create happiness. Be happy. Smile forever. Live in the moment.
