The Free Orange

Somewhere out there in a grocery store is an orange without a sticker on it. Maybe someone forgot to put it on, or some kid pulled it off while his mother was walking over to the apples. Perhaps a part of the sticker was peeling off and the adhesive side caught onto another orange, transferring itself over. Or maybe it's a conspiracy. Maybe the stickers are meant to make all the oranges appear the same when in reality, they're each unique. They want us to think, "Oh, this orange says #4309 and so do the other two in my bag. They must all be the same." But don't believe it.

They're trying to do the same thing with us too. "Hi, i'm #5992, just like you." They want us all to think we're the same so they try and manipulate circumstances. That orange, the one with no sticker, is the key to our freedom. If we can only figure out a way to get the stickers off ourselves so that we don't all appear the same. So that we can all wake up and figure out that we are unique. We may look similar to others, but take off the peel and we're not. Don't literally take off the peel, that would hurt quite a bit.

I'm really tired. I fell asleep and had a whole row of "k" on the screen because my finger was pressing down and i didn't realize it (because i fell asleep). So that's enough about the oranges (for now...)
