Do not be afraid!

While walking through the streets I like to observe people, their clothing, their relations, their behaviour. It's amazing how much one can read from other person's face, how much one can discover by trying to look under the mask they put on everyday. In most of cases underneath it there's fear and pain. The latest study of WHO shows that more than 350 milion people suffers from depression, among them a significant percentage is youth. How's that possible? We grow up in the civilisation of technology, where addictins, the cult of beauty and crisis of family values makes us, the youth, be constantly scared of rejection. Every boy and girl has to face the cruel reality, struggling with their own consciousness just to be accepted. It seems like natural vocation of every gender is not popular anymore. A woman is no longer a wife, a mother, a person who brings love to the family and a man is no longer the force, the fighter. It is like we lived in a matrix and our deadly error was  keeping on living in comformist unity with it. Do not be scared of being yourself, pursue your aims, be a person YOU want to be, not people around you. Go further, go beyond the mediocrity, go find your heaven on earth and live your life to the fullest. The way to happiness apears to be easy, when you don't look at others and at what's being forced on you.

“True freedom is not advanced in the permissive society, which confuses freedom with license to do anything whatever and which in the name of freedom proclaims a kind of general amorality. It is a caricature of freedom to claim that people are free to organize their lives with no reference to moral values, and to say that society does not have to ensure the protection and advancement of ethical values. Such an attitude is destructive of freedom and peace.” 
― Pope John Paul II

“Do not be afraid. Do not be satisfied with mediocrity. Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” 
― Pope John Paul II
