Something I feel strongly about…
Knowledge of self so people can be who they are. This is a continual process with some having more of a jump start and others are behind the eight ball playing catchup in their late 30s. I fit the latter.
Society in so many minute ways discourages this because it is not in it’s best interest to have folks be in possession of themselves. I think this the biggest reason why so many folks are miserable and unhappy. It is stressful to act in a role that you were not cast for. This is not to say that one cannot learn something new. Learning is a integral part of life because it is the cycle of change. I’m talking about having to be someone you clearly are not because of labels put on folks generation after generation. Yep, the crab mentality is in full effect.

I agree, too many people are just going with the flow, and then hating themselves for it. I think it's important to actively seek out one's path, not just follow the path of least resistance
I hear ya!
Sad situation that this world creates. I think that if I wasn't able to be myself…I would shrink away~!! Yes many different mind games are played now a days. I always ask what is it all for?
Me too! I guess we'd be looking like some dried up prunes. lol
