* entrapped by sociology...

Sociology is an iron cage

It traps you in beliefs, in thoughts, in perceptions; in questions, in analysis, in cathexis; in mystery, in discovery…in solutions, in illusions in dreams, in hope, in freedom, in reflection, in choices, in morals, in values...in a system, in a pattern…it controls your life, teaches you that society is important, it is above you…break a rule and society punishes…it teaches you all answers and leaves you no choice…since you can never be free…you can know everything – only what sociologist can do …but there is one thing you will always be taught. You will be taught that you are a tiny part in this system, you belong here, and you live here and die here. You fight and you try to change. Society bounces back. You can have all the answers but you will never know how to fight the system- but you know that if you do- society will be the victor. Society is people...society is power…society is God. You seek solace from it, but you wonder, you ask so mush from it but get so less, you hunt to unravel its mystery, you feel it all around, you obey and yet…you are powerless.
