Superhuman powers

We all have them. Keep the trust issue at hand, from my previous post.

We're living in a perverted world, where one must first prove their innocence before being able to prove their virtues. We thus start in a "negative self" position and we need to put ourselves on the line so we can prove we're harmless to those around us. It usually exhausts one, chews their energy right off - this sort of effort. But since nobody cares about anyone else than themselves (at least as the society we live in today teaches us to behave), that effort goes unnoticed. Peachy.

Now comes the nifty part - so we're harmless, but why would that alone be enough for the other one so that they'd like to have us around them? Well - no reason at all. Therefore, one must now push on and prove they deserve attention. But guess what? all your energy got sucked into the perverted "prove yourself innocent" process. Most of us don't really give a dead cow's ass about it, thus once exhausted, sayonara and a good nap to ya!
How about those who do care, though? What about their effort? What about their torment? Nobody cares, but they are the superhuman beings once they push themselves over that limit. That fringe is all that makes us more than human. It's not a reason to believe one is a lot more than those around them - since they're nothing other than limited human beings, anyhow - but it's enough for one to feel at least OK with themselves.

Too bad most of us chose to remain blind, comfortable within the cushions of the fuzzy fake universe-like construct the society we live in builds around us with each detail we notice from outside (ads, products, shimmering clothes and whatnot?)...

It's a lose-lose situation.
