From the time of birth, you are expected to conform – the way you behave, where you learn, what you learn, how you dress, who you are seen with, what you buy and how you use it, what you eat, where you eat it and how you eat it, and so on and so forth…
some of us conform and live our entire life based on the rules that have been already set without our permission…
and then there are some of us, who refuse to walk the trodden path, who refuse to conform to the set standards, and evolve our own… and we behave, eat, learn, mingle, buy and do things exactly the way we like it… and over a period of time become part of a set of others, who we identify with…. until the time we feel that we are conforming…
until next time, i’m a non conformist, is that okay? 😉
i never fit in any group in school… wasnt into barbies…wasnt into dead beat endless studying….wasnt into sports…read like a bookworm… so was pretty much a loner…. plus i hung otu with the boys….as one of the boys.. so that ostracised me even more.. my husband is SO pleased.
lol. need i say more.
been reading J Krishnamurti.
“Conventional education makes independent thinking extremely difficult. Conformity leads to mediocrity”
Until the next time, you arent tending towards mediocrity !
