Yeah... I agree with you...
The problem when we realize this...
...is that you no longer want to be a part of society, or at least, do what mankind do. Then you have a real problem - how will you live in society?
That's is my problem rigth now. I have to go to university, but what will I do if I don't agree with anything? How will I live? I also discussed that in the thread "Who is crazy?"... take a look..
well, Living "in" society or "with" society, I think are two different aspects of Living. Acceptance of the rules of mankind is the shortest route to peace with mankind, however, you have the power to use your newfound knowledge to better yourself for certain, and also to express yourself in a way that could concievably change the rules you don't agree with! Be patient in your quest of the truth, accept what you know to be true and final, yet save energy for the questions that pose themselves as dark and ugly, like living in or with society. Do not let those drain the energy needed to be at peace with your soul. Let me Share something old with you that has been a guide for me for many years. the author is unknown to me, but it is a good read..

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. Go As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble, it's a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantement, it is as perrenial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
