are we mad?


Going at 30 40 50 80 miles per hour, then making up traffic rules,signals, pedestrian crossings, safety belts, helmets, horns,driving tests,speed limits, speed cameras, police....
why are we moving around like crazy like this in the first place?  so fast?

Exercising, dieting...
TVs, movies, books entertainment,gambling, booze...
Sudoku, crosswords,Angry birds, sports
Vacations, weekends, holidays,

Contrived?? Fake?? no?
Why isnt Life all the entertainment, exercise, holiday,mental simulation we need? why is  all this separate from "life"? Is our life kinda mad?
appropriate, in-appropriate, politically correct/incorrect/offensive/ Morals, etiquette, Laws
If we think about it, we are walking a tight rope every moment of our lives... If we were a river, its like we are being made to flow in a deep narrow canal...
If we were wild animals, its like we are living in a zoo
as if we are under masks and layers and layers or make up and costumes..and reading scripts. as if we dont even know anymore who or what we are, let alone what others are...

Child care rules, social workers, health and safety, benefits.. western society has gone one step ahead ...
I wonder if "civilization" and we  have all  gone mad!
