I find myself wondering why humans and their entirety, feel inadequate unless they are in a relationship, have a high paying job, drive that “new car” and have that fancy and spacious house that everybody envies.
Why do we feel that our quote on quote “status” defines who we are as individuals?
When did it become socially acceptable to let others tell us where to go, how act, look and live?
Why do we let others set the bar for OUR own lives, tell us how far we can go and how much we can achieve?
Now don’t misunderstand me, I am not by any means saying that it is wrong to want a relationship, high paying job, that “new car” and fancy house. Simply ask yourself this, do YOU want this life because YOU want it? OR do you want this life because it is what is acceptable and you don’t want to be anything or anyone that stands out?
Because let’s face it, the last thing we as a human race want is to be looked down upon and judged by others due to our standings in life, whether it be financially, politically or religiously.
A difference of opinion and or life style is dangerous ground that we all tread. Whether we admit it, or not. But it should be tread, tread everyday that you breathe life into your body. If we were all meant to live the same lives, look the same and act the same then why don’t we?
What is so wrong with individuality?
What is wrong with being who you truly are, or who you truly want to be?
I believe everybody is unique and beautiful in their own way, not because we all strive to be the same and strive to cross the same finish line.
Love yourself and live your life for YOU, not for someone else.
Define YOUR own success and cross YOUR own finish line.
