Human Robots

If you think about it, we're all robots. Of course not like R2D2. But we are robots. We go day by day, doing the exact same thing. Wake up, eat, going to school, eat, go home, eat, watch some TV, eat, go to bed. And we do this every day! Some might eat more than others or sleep more. And when you get older, school turns into work, but still. It's like we are all robots being controlled by remotes. I think the real heroes in our society are the ones that make something special of their lives, the ones that break up the monotomy of it all. The ones that jump off cliffs or wrestle alligators or skip down the sidewalks with a hobo by their side. I honestly believe we all would be happier people if we did something bizzarre everyday. Brush your teeth with soda or go to school wearing a Superman cape! People will for sure question your sanity, but isn't it worth it? You get to look back on that day and say "That was unique. I bet that will never happen again. I wonder what I'll do tomorrow?" You can't say that if you're a robot. Robots say "Well, today was like all the others. I woke up, ate, worked, ate some more and went to sleep. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow." I personally think it's sad. Us robots do the same thing day in and day out. Then we die, but at least that's something you don't do everyday! And I didn't want this blog to be about advice, but I would suggest that everyone do something crazy everyday. Life is too short to live the same day twice. (I stole that from a movie, so don't quote me.) I'm qulity of robot-ism myself. I should stop preaching and actually get out there and sing christmas charols in the middle of July on a street corner. Just so i can have the satisfaction of sayin to myself "Well, I doubt I'm ever gonna do that again."
