Why Should I?

A lot of times, we make allowances and we give in because we know we can push ourselves a little bit just to give people the joy of letting them have whatever they want. Most of the time, even when it hurts, we still say 'yes', 'sorry', 'okay' and other stuff which don't really portray how we really feel. Is that really necessary? At times, I think I'm done pleasing others because I have pride too. I have ego too! So why should I? I don't care what people think and what they say about me. I have fucking nothing to lose. Do they? Yes, karma. Bla bla bla, say whatever they want because I know I have something big in life to achieve. I don't even have the time to even plan something illegal for them to talk about behind my back. Hey, my back is clean, no shit! What's their big plan in life? Yes, to gossip about other people, offending people and a whole bunch of stupid things. So if there comes a day when they think I should please them due to seniority, sorry, uncles and aunties. Take a number and wait for your turn in your next life. I don't please people. So why is there a perception that younger people should please older people? There is only one possible reason that I can think of. They need to be pleased (butt buttered, ass licked, sole of the feet kissed) because they need to feel important before they die. Yeah, it sounds mean. But come to think of it, I think that explains it. The only older people whom I really respect are my parents and my Sensei. I don't have to please them. Why should I? When I'm being myself, they feel pleased. That's the way it should be! No pretending, no padding the messages and stuff. I'm just being myself =)
