Lol.
It means laugh out loud. But you know, other than texting people LOL, do we actually " laugh out loud "? Guess what, we don't. Not a lot of us actually laugh out loud.Ok, I'm not pointing fingers here, because, technically, I'm also guilty of this sometimes.
OK, back to the point, this society is literally awesome. We're mic to each other, and we connect well with one another. But compared to our parents generation, we don't stand a chance. We live in a society that cares about appearances, social status, etiquette, and most importantly, were extremely insecure, extremely self conscious. Etiquette is not necessarily bad, though. For instance, etiquette at the table is necessary. OK, so why do we have so many expectations?So much so that we have to control our feelings. Control how we feel , control the humor, block the laugh, muffle the snigger, stop snickering when someone comes, block the tears, wipe them away, stop crying,brush your hair to make it look good, put on make up for the guests.Seriously?Why not a world without expectations? Who cares if you laugh however you want, mess up your hair, don't wear make up anymore, wear sweatpants and a tank top to a fancy restaurant, cry if you want, laugh if you want. WHY NOT?Believe it or not, the reason is us.Some might say, no the reason is expectations. But come on, who creates the expectations? Us.Humans.People.
So who can put a stop to it?
Who WILL put a stop to it?
think about it.
