We live in a world that tells us not to care, to consume everything in sight. It tells us that being cool and being an individual actually means buying what everyone else is buying and doing what everyone else is doing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I try to explain to people that the only way to be cool is to be who you truly are, and the only way to live life is to do the things that you want to do and be the person that you want to be no matter who that is or what that is or how you have to do it. That's the only way you can be genuinely happy.
I don't think coolness used to be such a commodity among adults. And now it is.
We all have these notions of cool that come about at different points in our lives, and it's interesting in how it evolves or doesn't evolve in different people.
Maybe the coolest people are the ones who don't care about being cool.
People spend time worrying about things they think they have to have and lose perception of what they do have. You can have all the money and material things you want. If you aren't here to enjoy them, what good do they do?
If you, like, consciously think about being cool, you're not cool. If you consciously think about being, like, different or original, you ain't different or original.
People expect you to be doing something cool all the time. In a normal life, that's not happening!
I've never been cool - and I don't care.
People don't know exactly what I do; they just know I'm 'cool.'
Being cool is being your own self, not doing something that someone else is telling you to do.
