Individualism

As I sat on the train this morning, looking around at the different people that rode the same train, I thought, every single person on this train looks very different from one another. Every person has their own clothing style, hair style, and every other style you can think of. They all want to be their own person. Nobody wants to be, or look, like anybody else, yet they immitate their favorite celebrities, which is where all the trends come from anyway. It's pretty contradictory.

But that's not the point I'm trying to make here. The point is that everybody tries so hard to be different, when we have so many more things in common. We're all people. We all have fragile bodies with body parts and functioning organ systems. We all have feelings. We all have thoughts, yet we use the most miniscule differences and try to use them to fully differentiate from each other. We have so much pride and arrogance for trying to be different that we get lost in it. It's almost as we think we are something else, like we're not human, and we're superior to everyone else around us, yet we are basically the same. We are all people.

I feel like this whole sense of individualism was set up to make it easier for Big Brother to control us. There are evil forces out here that are working on controlling our every move. Sounds crazy, don't believe me, but it's true and I urge you to do your own research. By pushing individualism so hard on the people, as it is now, it makes it easier for these forces to take control. It's easier to capture one person at a time than a multitude.

Now, I'm not saying that people shouldn't be individuals and that people shouldn't be different, because that would be really boring and I would hate to see everyone dressed the same or acting the same way. What I'm saying is that we shouldn't let individualism pull mankind apart. We should help each other and move forward towards a better future; not as individuals, but as people.

So next time you see someone completly different from you on the streets, don't judge, but smile and remember that they aren't much different from you.
