'But I don't want to go among mad people,' said Alice. 'Oh, you can't help that,' said the cat. 'We're all mad here.” How mad was Alice even in her wonderland to think she was safe from madness! It is mad to think we are all sane there or here!
Aren’t we all insane? Isn’t being multidimensional a strike of madness? Don’t we all have our moments? Are we always humans or cannibal monsters that eat each other with the teeth of greed and cruelty? Isn’t pure madness for the people of the world to fight over a piece of land and shed blood of innocence in the name of a “Good Cause”?
Look around you as you drive in your car, or walk in the streets, look and see, be involved and you will feel like you are walking in the asylum on crazy people!
Although there is a rather positive madness that I personally wouldn’t call madness, it is the mind who has a genius ability to see what those” sane “other minds fail to even notice, these minds shape and make the progress of the human race, because they see with the wild extreme eye of breakthrough, of trying the untried yet, of pushing the envelope, of going to the extremes, so we call them mad people but in reality we are the mad ones for being this rational to stand on the line of the possible and not having the heart to invade the impossible territories to question its possibility!
Is it really madness to go against the grail and to give the back to the crowds when they are all living a programmed automated way of life where everything is inserted inside their brains, stuffed in their systems? Is it really craziness to question our answers and to refuse and rebel against the status quo and the giving system of beliefs and faith? Is it crazy to follow our own rules, to make a rule instead of following it blindly with the eye of foolishness? If being our own judge and lawyers make us mad persons then I welcome my madness loudly and proudly! I’d rather be the black sheep in the white sheep herd than keep the white just as a sign of conformity and resemblance!
What is a crazy person? What is a madman? Is he someone who lost the ability to discern between right or wrong? Between what is real and what is not? Or is it “Doing the same thing and expecting a different result at each time? It is a man who favored converting into mad, in the communally accepted sense of the word, rather than surrender to a sick illusion of human supremacy over other humans in different parts of the world, because of a skin color, or sect or religion or even nationality, the crack and the gap we humans always create to separate our worlds and divide the undivided nature of a human being!
So” civilization” has choked in its shelter all those who stood against its refined and educated patterns of social validation and acceptance codes to refute it and be brave or “crazy “enough to make a revolution and be the voice of the sane persons who are simply satisfied by existence and abiding by the laws of” normal” humans.
So what does society do? It feels threatened by those who have a sharp eye of understanding the reality of the matters and the authenticity of the game and how to break the rules, so it builds a defending mechanism to protect itself from those” Madmen”, because they refused to become its partners in crime in certain misdeed. So when the society is about to hear the words spoken from the mouth of truth, it loses its good sense when it comes to certain intolerable reality so it duct tapes the lips of truth and stamp it with the seal of madness !
Do not be duped into mistaken great edgy audacious minds for crazy minds in the negative context, but know the difference between madness as in the strike to the brainpower and the brainpower in its outmost performance!
Dare to embrace those flashes of madness that hits the depths of your dark places and enjoy the thunder of experiencing the thrill of a new discovery!
