| I Want To Be Adopted By The Addams Family |
|
|
Sometimes I get tired of conforming. I feel like I want to break out,
to set myself apart from the mainstream. Yet, I never seem to shed my
day to day "normal" persona. In reality, most of us follow certain
standards that are agreed upon in society to be acceptable.
We act a specific way around our
neighbors that is considered "normal". We meet and greet strangers the
way we've been taught. We teach our kids the "proper" way to interact
with others and conduct themselves with class and dignity.
My point is is that it's all a big conforming process. A cookie cutter society of expected behaviors. If you fail to conform, then you just may be shunned and ostracized. Looked upon as a weirdo. And we all know that most folks don't want that.
But what if we suddenly became true individuals began to act different, dress different, interact with others differently, and just plain live completely by our own rules? Hey, this is what the Addams Family does. You know, from the Addams family tv show.
Do you want to know what's so great about the Addams Family? They don't care! Check out the Addams family photos on the Internet and you'll see that. This must be quite liberating. They literally do what they want to do, say what they want to say, live how they want to live, and play how they want to play.
And that's not just M.C. Hammer who believes this. Nope, the Addams Family is the epitome of freedom. They decided to be different and make their own rules. Even the Addams family names are unique.
Basically what I'm saying is it's great! We should all take pointers from the Addams Family and loosen up a bit. They don't hurt anyone, so there's really nothing wrong with it. Now, of course I do realize that this is a fictional family, but they still make a wonderful point about life. They show you how great it can be when you live on your own terms and worry less. Now that we've established that people live fairly reserved and conservative lives, we should all try and evolve. Be more like the Addams Family. Sing a few choruses of Addams family lyrics and have more fun. No one's saying you have to play with swords, have a hairy mop running around, or live in a house full of cobwebs. But you can if you want to. I am just addressing the FUN aspect. Stress less over minute things that occur daily and just have a good time. Life is too short not to. Oh, and if you're interested in watching the Addams Family, you can always check out the old series or the newer films on DVD. These are worth a viewing if you've never seen them. |
