There are some moments in life, sometimes awkward moments, when the the veil is dropped, the truth is realized and the world will never be the same for you. It kind of feels like a weight off your shoulders, strange, as if you knew there was something wrong from the off, and you just needed clarification. After this realization, you then have the decide what you want to do with this information... that's where the difficulty comes in. Do you stay or do you go.
You are talking to a friend, and suddenly you realize that they are so fake, and only go out with you when you pay. Promises and dreams promised by your work, and a sentence in a memo, bringing you down to reality. You look at yourself smiling in the window, and see, for a change, an unhappy person staring back at you. The velvet curtains drop, and you see what is truly in front of you. Feeling like a fool when you realize that you have been staring through these glasses for so long, not seeing the truth, nevertheless, you are free now. You have seen the world/person/work/yourself for whom and what they really are.
The question is now. Do you stay, my dear reader, or do you go?
Do you resign from work and find somewhere else, now knowing what "promises" to look out for?
Do see your "friend" run when you tell them that you are broke for the month?
Do you find out why you are truly unhappy and try and fix it?
Or do you simply put the rose coloured classes back on, and continue living in this world of false people, artificial promises and unhappy "happiness"? Because that way you have friends, a work that you can build a career at and a happy you?
So the question is. Do you stay, or do you go?
