You Are A King And You Are Clueless About It

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes, a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Here comes the weekend, time to go out for a drink, or maybe eat out with the family, or do some shopping, and definitely post pictures of neatly arranged food on Instagram!

Here comes the week, let’s work, and work, so we can keep up with our lifestyle.

I don’t know if you noticed, but I tried to portray the simplicity of western life, given that you have an amazing life such as the one I just described, and not one full of terror and hunger as many comrades in the world unfortunately have. I wanted to portray the boringness of a “normal” western life.

Life cannot be about creating content for Instagram and making as much money as we can, purely, won’t you agree? Doesn’t that sound boring? We need some adventure, don’t we?

It feels as if we are living prepackaged lives. And don’t get me wrong, it is amazing to live such lives of comfort and luxuries. But people need more.
