Conformity is Boring

It annoys me when I see people trying to "fit in" ...trying to be something they obviously aren't. John F. Kennedy said it best "Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth".I mean how far is one going to get in life following behind someone else? Step out! Be bold! Be you! Yes, there will be some people who talk...some people who don't like it...they are labeled "haters" and they are probably hating because they are stuck in a world of conformity...jailed for life...with no way out. Along with "haters" there are people who appreciate you being you. Self-Belief and confidence go a long way. Some would even admire the fact that you are unique...that you are a leader...that you are real...that you are yourself. Then maybe they will be inspired to be themselves. Stepping out and being the person you are comfortable with being...the person you dont have to try to be...the person you were born to be is a beautiful thing! It increases diversity ...opens peoples eyes...broadens minds. I love seeing different people...different styles, personalities...the list goes on. Even to the point of different races. Don't try and be a race/ ethnicity that you are not. Be happy with who you are! Embrace who you are! Don't dress a certain way because that is what everyone else is wearing....what you are wearing could be the next big thing! Don't change your hair color or cut your hair because that is what is "in". Do it because you want to...because that is who you are. Make sure you wont regret it later. Alex Wek put it nicely..."I have no problem with whatever the next big look is. Just don't tell me that only one look is beautiful." There isnt only ONE look that is beautiful...ONE personality that is appealing...ONE thought that is worth hearing. There are many. If there was only one...this world would be boring...life would be boring. This is America people. Break free...be free!
