hierarchy

You incessantly try to be better then, higher up, prettier, smarter,

“the best”

but what if…

In reality…

There is NO “better than”.

What if in reality, there is no hierarchy.

Ever.

What if in reality, there is no such thing as power.

What if in reality, there is no such thing as beauty.

In the ways we’ve been taught.

What if…

there is no “better than?”

The tree is no better then the grass, sometimes I want to lean on a tree and sometimes I want to lay in the grass.

Life is like this, there is no better than, just a choice of whats desired in each moment.

One moment of desire doesn’t cancel out another.

You will never be better then anyone or anything.

We are all different, useful, needed, and none of us are to be placed in some soul sucking mechanical hierarchy of “better than”

I’m honestly tired of seeing it within me, and within others.

I’m tired of watching love be squeezed violently out of people desperately searching for it underneath boulders of hierarchy.

you always have been, and always will be

perfect

    I’ve been thinking about this post while I was driving. I believe it’s related to self-esteem. When individuals have a strong sense of self-worth, they don’t feel the need to compare themselves to others. In my workplace, which is quite toxic, I’ve noticed that many people feel the urge to put others down and assert their superiority. And the question becames”what if I’m not enough?”
