What If You're Just Like A Lamb For The Slaughter?

Tweet

Growing up with a family where you didn't feel like you belonged. Your personalities are so at odds you'd think you're from mars. They all seem to hate you when you start to talk or give your 2 cents. They hate you even more when you act out because you can't speak. Now that you're older you realize that the reason why everyone is so cold is that you're all just like lambs. You don't say it but it's all at the back of your minds, at least subconsciously. Meaningful relationships and interactions don't really matter as you're all meant to be separated anyways, eventually. You can't build each other up since sharing meant losing yourself, getting attached and being accountable. You don't need each other's help and you shouldn't expect any - not without raised eyebrows at least. In the end your success is measured by the number of children you have - more sons the better - and the amount of money in your bank so you can repeat the process all over again. So what's wrong with that? Nothing really. If it's what having a family is all about. And not until you start to realize that all your life you are being raised just like a lamb to be sold in the meat market.
