A eassy from Tianya bbs:What do you live for?

Friends, What have you lived for? 
 
You must have not known. Because, you have been a slave in the family to your parents, a slave in the school to its various rules, and a slave in the society to its moralities, politics, laws and economies. Since you have been a slave through your life, how do you possibly know what you have lived for?  

Friends, you have been a walking corpse by being a slave to them, which have deprived you of asserting yourself. Every day you eat, work and study, but still you are a walking corpse.  

You are a walking corpse, friend, don’t you know that?  

Friends, haven’t you ever come up a fresh idea and intended to paint this dull world with a little color? Yet the society has threatened you of any change against its convention, the school has stopped you from any alteration to its rules, and your family has prevented you from receiving any of its consequences. Then you have learned to stop yourself.
Oh friends, you have learned to be a slave.  

Have you ever been, friends, feeling smothering in this big jail? Haven’t you ever never felt the impulsion within to cry out this suffocation?  
So repressive is the leash of family, school and society. So horrible is the threat of them. But do you know friends, what are they?  
They are the laws to make human hypocritical, evil, and to be walking corpses, to make life fade and wither.  

And friends, do you have the courage to give them a counterattack, and to hold a sponge that wipes out the dirt they brought to the world?  
The beautiful world is not for the dead. It is for people alive to enjoy.  

Go friends, say what you long to speak, and do what you long to do. Go along and boast the brio of life that god bestowed you.   

Throw into hell the so-called moralities, laws and school rules if they are simply the obstacles that stand in you way and suppress you efforts.   

You have to hurry friends, for otherwise, your young limbs are going to rot, your animating brains are going to wilt, and your passions are going to chill. Then all will be too late.  

Friends, unleash your power of youth, manifest the vigor of life, now and here!  

Friends, what you feel surge and turbulent within is your very life. And this is the very life you should live for. When this torrent of life from every youth floods the land, life succeeds.
