Obtaining one’s own individual identity in today’s day and age is exceedingly hard. With so umpteen advances in applied sciences leading to something bigger, better, and more in the now each and every sidereal day, it’s hard to discover something that truly specifies a person without being roasted or thrown into the “so yesterday” class without so much as a second glimpse. It is so hard to be an independent when masses are constantly looking at what the next person has, how they dress, what they listen to, where they travel, or essentially how they live their life. In order to sincerely be an independent these days one demands to go old school, turn back the hands of the clock to a time when things were casual, where men actually knocked on a woman’s door with her favorite flowers instead of texting the address of an overpopulated, overcrowded, overpriced club or bar. Back to a time where people wrote each other passion letters on personalized stationery, opened doors for one another, and bonded over coffee and sweets instead of instant subject matters and MySpace music downloads.
Individuals don’t realize that in order to stand out these days, they have to actually try very to not to succeed the crowds and the seedpod people that plague today’s society. We are seriously living in an environment that nearly forces us to follow individuals as opposed to standing on our own two independent feet. Having a sense of self is extremely difficult for many people in a “normal” society so one can only think how hard it may be for a person to find themselves in a productive city such as Chicago or New York where individuals are spoon fed what they should like or dislike.
Ladies and gents, try busting out that personalized stationery rather of sending an email, try meeting a member of the opposite sex in the grocery store or a local coffee household, and most importantly, try doing something that no one else you know has done yet. The impression can be quite liberating.
