So after two weeks of studying about the famous Cold War, I have come to realize that my understanding of it is a bare minimum, no denying it. The cold war frustrates me, and causes my ever strange mind to think that this catastrophe occured soley due to those attention seeking war mongers ( although it was'nt a banquet of bloody knives), just wanted a portion of that limelight- a sad attempt to get noted into all the history textbooks of all those poor students who all don glasses ( and they are only called glasses to allow a more refined and cultured feel to it when they are really just very fashionable magnifying glasses) which they unfortunately achieved. For what thou might question? FAME.It sadly is still prominent in this day and age. First, people just wanted to be filthy rich. Then they wanted to be powerful, until mankind realized attaining power then maintaining it required a heck lot of work. Plus, there were no guarantees millions would know your name. Many rich , powerful individuals pull strings behind the scenes. We don't know who they are. But today, today all everybody wants is fame. fame elivers money and power if you play al the angles, plus the added bonus of recognition. When you are famous, everyone wants to know what you ate for breakfast, where you went on Sunday, what you ate for desert , what your pyjamas look like... everyone wants to follow you. then your friendly neighbourhood market uncle becomes the next Donald Trump cos he has begun franchising ice kachang all over the world. its bad.But yet COOL.You can manufacture social nicety, but you cannot dictate physiology.
That. Was so totally boss. ;
