Mediocrity sucks
Some people are awesome apart ..and sadly... morons together.
Loathing in hypocrisy . Searching for something i can never find.
Why can't I get my head out of the clouds for once? ?
Mediocrity sucks.
Want to leave this place...and run ... move far away ...
I appreciate what I got here ... I love calcutta ... Always have.
But can't help but feel I am being held back here ...
A different flavor of life beckons...
Is calling out to me everyday ...
In what hue ...
In what shape and form ...
I can channelize my talents I do not know
...But I KNOW i shall never know unless I leave this place .
I don't want my growth to be stunted and my life's decisions molded by my surroundings.
I have to try .
I have a dream.
I do not know what it is other than ...
a long-standing urge for FREEDOM.
This never experienced yet unrelenting desire .... is killing me.
I need to wake up .
Tired of people telling me I'm no good .
That i can't .
Assuming what i shall be...
What I can achieve .
TO hell with them.
Never achieved shit ...Don't assume for what I can or cannot do.
Mediocrity sucks.
I CAN ..
I CAN ..
I CAN ..
I HAVE TO ..
'cause Mediocrity sucks.

amazing read......
i loved it...
mediocrity really sucks...
bt as we climb the ladder...while on the way....u alienate many ppl,(amng thm many close ones)
Strangely engh u r loved by public...bt still u r misunderstud n resented by many.individually (n smtyms those r close ones)..u nvr wanted that .itz hurting...
at the end of the day its a trade-off...its lonely at the top...cz vry few ppl cn really understand u n ur dreams .......
bt pursuing ur dreams n letting ur unrestrained self get an expression in lyf, which cms only ones, is a UTOPIAN BLISS.its a pleasure that only ur soul can feel...ek ehsaas hai yeh.......
Bt follow ur dreams.........cz u r smtyms nt gud for smthings.bt u r born for dat........
dats the way we show our respect to the God.......
m on my way...God bless me....it ll be lonely bt the ppl who lll stick to me ll be real assets...
n thnx for being a gud frnd....
kabhi ,kabhi naatak karte ho,tantrums bhi fenkte ho.........bt chalo........tum bhi kya yaad rakhoge ki ek disha thi........;-)isliye sah leti hoon........
@ disha ...its the ones who stick dat matter ...
n few ppl hav d guts to actually go against the grain ............
i wish u all d very best in your journey ..
n don wory ... i never forget ...
you know something mate?there is nothing called 'mediocrity' that really exists.its just a big word that society has framed an dforced onto our lap.u know,there is nothing one cannot do,and thats why there is that urge to go out and prove urself,and thats why,u arent mediocre.u do get the tag.people love 'tagging',so much so,that they create a social networking site of the same name.everyone's special man,even the local sweeper.try doing his job for a change.ur ass will be on fire,that makes him special too
and finally when u get out of this place,for that,i wish u luck
@kushal .... i know dat ..........
but we always want to try out new things ... become 'better' ... or else dre would b a cessation to our cause for existence .............
Society doesn't protect dose who cant protect themselves. only power matters ...in this world mate ...dats d sorry truth ... good thots ... n feelings ...count for shit at the end of d day ...only actions count ...
bt i appreciate ur response ...thanks :-)
i have a comment too...
how do you define mediocrity???
its not something that is absolute...its relative...
everyone is special...every small job in this world is big in its own small way...
even if i am a carpenter...i'll try and be the best carpenter in the world...
mediocrity is ideally self-defined...not society-defined...
there is an extraordinary story in the lives of all ordinary...mediocre soul...
@ soumabha...
mediocrity is something which makes you ordinary ...just one in the crowd ... it's a place where you hold no power ..no sway ....n society defined it may b ... but we form a part of this society ...... right ?? i knw its good honest work ....it must be respected..... but don't give me the crap that most working ordinary people are living their dreams ...
most ppl u find will tell u it sucks .... n dey do it cause u mst earn a living...
ultimately my friend...........
in watever .........self-pleasing,sanctifying crap u wrap it in ... at d end of d day mediocrity...has and always shall suck.
We can't move the world..
no,we can't make everything change...
no,we have no special ability..
yes,we are the outstandingly mediocre...
maybe the genetic structure,environment,society,the way we grew up,opportunities we were bestowed with,opportunities we didn't make full use of...
we are no iconoclast...
and the end of the day in a state of despair for being nothing more than human or humane..
that too a mediocre human...
its the realization of being mediocre that keeps us going..
Not because of the author's persuasive skills...but due to a agglomeration of many dark clouds...I have been drawn towards a feeling of disgust about mediocrity...over the past few days...which makes me say that mediocrity does suck...
...simplicity does not...by any means...though...not even common men...doing ordinary jobs...
...but self incurred mediocrity...is the one which sucks...
