Why do people become goths?
Most goths become goths because they have been spurned by 'normal' society because the way they want to live their lives does not fit in with how most people are told to live theirs. Goths are free thinkers, people who do not accept the moral rules of society because they're told 'This is just how it is' or 'This is what God says!'. Rather goths tend to listen to what you have to say, and make up their own mind. This kind of free thinking and rejection of dogma earns only rejection in todays society.
However because of this rejection from 'normal' society, goths have banded together to associate with other free thinkers. This has a beneficial effect on both the individual and society as a whole. For the individual they have a sense of belonging, and friends they can associate with. For society it removes one more misfit filled with rage from society's streets.
This of course is not the case for all goths. Many goths today are goths for a variety of other reasons. They like the music, or the clubs are better, they have goth friends and joined in with them, or they just like staying up late nights and goths are the only ones awake to talk ....... glitter-graphics.com.

Now I will tell you what I've done for you -
50 thousand tears I've cried.
Screaming, deceiving and bleeding for you -
And you still won't hear me.
(going under)
Don't want your hand this time - I'll save myself.
Maybe I'll wake up for once (wake up for once)
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom
I'm dying again
I'm going under (going under)
Drowning in you (drowning in you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through
I'm going under
Blurring and stirring - the truth and the lies.
(So I don't know what's real) So I don't know what's real and what's not (and what's not)
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore
I'm dying again
I'm going under (going under)
Drowning in you (drowning in you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through
I'm...
So go on and scream
Scream at me I'm so far away (so far away)
I won't be broken again (again)
I've got to breathe - I can't keep going under
I'm dying again
I'm going under (going under)
Drowning in you (drowning in you)
I'm falling forever (falling forever)
I've got to break through
I'm going under (going under)
I'm going under (drowning in you)
I'm going under .

The gothic stereotype
Many stereotypes of goths exist these days. It seems everyone has their own way to define 'what is goth'. From the stereotypes based on clothing to music right up to the stereotypes of all goths being satanists or part of some kind of cult. Categorically, all of these are false.
The goth scene is just as widely varied as society in general. There are many different professions represented in the scene, from highly skilled professionals like doctors and lawyers, to tradesman, to technically minded people to clerical workers. Many different musical tastes exist (and not all of them goth, there is a HUGE 80's following in the goth scene for some reason). The fashion varies vastly from goth to goth from the traditional flowing victorian style garments to the buckled and studded style regalia (also called industrial style, which is often closely related with goths, and have come to an understanding of co-existance, if uneasily at times). glitter-graphics.com.
Modern goth (ignoring where the name itself originally comes from) started in the early 80's as part of the punk subculture (which is itself was a rejection of most societal values, and anything considered part of the 'norm'). The phrase was coined by the band manager of Joy Division, Anthony H. Wilson, who described the band as 'Gothic compared with the pop mainstream'. The term stuck, and as punk eventually died, Goth survived and became its own subculture. The punk clothing and hairstyles mellowed, and the core 'rejection of society' attitude alone lived on in the gothic subculture. Over time this itself has been modified to be more of a 'no more blind acceptance of society's values' as opposed to rejection because it was there to be rejected (and because you could get away with it!).
Movies such as The Crow, and bands such as the Bauhaus helped establish the gothic image as dark, depressing, and even evil. As more and more 'dark' movies came out, numbers in the gothic subculture expanded, and there is now a gothic community in almost every major city around the world, and quite a number of towns have their own representative contingent. Nowdays there are more goth bands around than ever, and it has turned from an 80's phenomenon into a 90's way of life for many people. Unlike the punk subculture that it spawned from, there even exists a class of mature goths, still following the scene around even past their 20's and into their 30's and beyond.
Procurei-te esde o nascer do sol Ao embelezar da noite A manhã se estendeu de forma e contornos Indescitível estava pois em pequenos minutos Que procuras-te não me deparei Nem com um raio de so, das tuas palavras Image and video hosting by TinyPic Sim. Aguardei a tarde E ela veio, morna, depois ardente Embora tenha-se acalentado Pois a tua voz calou-se num barulho intenso Escondeu-se ou silenciou ? Image and video hosting by TinyPic A noite abraçou-me Sacudiu meus cabelos Clareou meu olhar Mas ao não te encontrar O véu noturno cobriu-me Image and video hosting by TinyPic E só me resta esperar As pegadas do sol A anunciar nas paginas de areias Um rastro que seja,a minha unica certeza Sm cheiro, sem olhar e sem toque As palavras vão acalentando, adormecendo, Enrijecendo, embriagando, humedecendo Um corpo insano a repusar num toque teu...(Cida Brasileiro) Image and video hosting by TinyPic Que a tua tarde seja tranquila... desejo-te um harmonioso final de semana ...
É hora de renovar os sonhos e acreditar na vida. Não existe realização sem sonho, sonhar é rascunhar a realidade; conquistar é acreditar, não conquistamos aquilo o que não acreditamos.
Mais importante que os adornos luminosos, que a beleza poética dos arranjos natalinos, do que a troca de cartões e presentes...
É acendermos luzes novas em nosso coração e nossa mente, reescrevermos os versos sutis de paz e amor, agendar um encontro com a nossa consciência, trocar velhos preconceitos por uma nova visão de mundo.
É muito importante, que os artifícios que emprestam luzes à paisagem natalina, não sejam mais do que réplicas miniaturizadas da infinita luz que inunda de esperança o cenário da nossa alma. Não nos preocupemos em mudar todo o mundo, se cada um de nós tornar melhor seu mundo interior, caminharemos para um todo melhor.
Procuremos ser: A solução, não o problema, A resposta, não a dúvida, A flor, não o espinho, O remédio, não o veneno, O curativo, não a ferida, O perdão, não a vingança, O diálogo, não a indiferença, O amor, não a violência, O cuidado, não a negligência, A fé, não o fanatismo, A fraternidade, não o egoísmo, A prática, não o discurso, A sinceridade, não a dissimulação, A virtude, não o vício, O estímulo, não a inveja, A beneficência, não a esmola... Procuremos amar mais, fazer mais, acreditar mais, sonhar mais, viver mais; reclamar menos, lamentar menos, julgar menos, criticar menos... Que isso tudo sirva, não apenas para o dia de natal, mas para o Natal de todo dia.
Quando, mais do que uma lembrança, a “Boa Nova” deve ser uma vivência cotidiana. Um fraterno e imorredouro desejar: felicidade, paz, prosperidade e amor.
