Mentally challenged people

The mentally challenged people seem to me to be quite intelligent,
look past your eyes to see what's relevant,
they may seem to be quite odd, quite strange
but maybe it is you who needs to rearrange,
your mind and the way you be thinkin
I took the vial and now i'm shrinkin
their hearts are twice as large as any of you
and to this they stand true, can't you see?
maybe they aren't as smart as Chung-Hee Lee
but they have been given the greatest gift of all,
to think with their hearts, eyes opened like paul.

I just started one of these things for fun and to put my ideas on to paper, well onto something :p haha

Childhood

Many people throughout my childhood and early youth talked a lot about the "real" world, as if i wasn't part of the world. I always wondered what this real world was and when I finally found out it was a depressing sight. The "real" world was where adults forgot what it was to be free. Maybe not in the litteral sense but more like, free in the mind. Most live by standards told to them. This is what is right, this is what is acceptable, this is what is wrong. As a smart girl said once upon a time, if the standard was to wear a codfish on your head, would you?1 Now people would say that, well that's completely absurd, but compared to what? The absurd standards if our race and age? We tell ourselves this is what life is supposed to be like, never once questioning this "absolute fact". They say life isn't happy, you can't do this, we can't do this, life doesn't work like that, but why not? Life is whatever you make it. We live in an age where depression is at an all time high, suicides are up and the "cure" is this prescription drug or this one or this one. Why are people depressed? Why do they think life is so unbelievably horrible? Is it because since they were children they are told that life isn't fair? That life isn't like a fairy tale? That there is NO happily ever after and anyone who believes there is, is stuck in a childhood delusion and hasn't grown up? I refuse to be stuck in this delusion, and no the "childhood delusion" buy the delusion that there is no happily ever after in the "real" world. There is a quote I heard once "Revolution starts in the mind of a child".2 I believe this to be true because as a child you don't have the limitations set on your mind by society like the older generations do. The mind of a child is a truly free one. A mind where the gates have not yet been created blocking your paths. Do you dare to break away? To break away from the set paths? Some do while others do but then eventually go back to the norm, which was demonstrated quite clearly through the counter-culture movement. Many people talk big about how they are so different, original or unique but when it comes down to it they are still trapped. They broke away from their chains bounding together their feet but didn't have the courage to break away from the prison cell they are stuck in.
