i wanted to write a very long entry but something happened - i just was listening to music and was thinking about life. it is extremely unfair, isnt it? there are some rules that we should follow and when we do not do this people think we are crazy or something like that. i am not crazy, well.. only sometimes...very seldom.... not really very seldom but seldom... i guess you know what i mean. i always follow these unwritten rules of life (by the way on my own experience these rules are different in different countries), but when one day i did something... no, not wrong, but just different, it seems that the whole world is against me. who the hell sets up all these stupid rules? and why are people so conservative? actually i myself am quite conservative, but i am also very tolerant (i hope so ) and i never thrust my opinion on other people. i know that i can be annoying and even can get on people's nerves, but i never tell people what they should or shouldnt do. and when i dont follow anybody's rules, it is not a protest against something. i just think that my life is my way and when i do something in a different way than other people do, i know that it is better so, better  for me, and for people i love.

Here is the song that made me think about all this stuff.

Artist: Jem
Song: They

Who made up all the rules
We follow them like fools
Believe them to be true
Don't care to think them through

And I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry it's like this
I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry we do this

And it's ironic too
Coz what we tend to do
Is act on what they say
And then it is that way

And I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry it's like this
I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry we do this

Who are they
And where are they
And how can they possibly
know all this
Who are they
And where are they
And how can they possibly
know all this

Do you see what I see
Why do we live like this
Is it because it's true
that ignorance is bliss

Who are they
And where are they
And how do they
know all this
And I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry it's like this

Do you see what I see
Why do we live like this
Is it because it's true
that ignorance is bliss

And who are they
And where are they
And how can they
know all this
And I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry we do this

This entry reminds of the quote, "You laugh at me because I am different, but I laugh at you because your all the same". Maybe that quote makes no sense to what you said but that's what came to mind. I don't think its so much rules we are meant to follow but the people that judge us for the decisions we make. We are all programed to do certain things that make sense to us...but sometimes make no sense to others. I have made plenty of those myself and had to answer to people who just "couldn't" understand. But like you I wonder who made those rules? And you know....sometimes even good girls like to be bad.
