View issues. I often seem to be on a different page.
Things others see as problems, i dont.
Things others think are irrelevent, i dont .
I often feel one degree left of centre in social contexts, not quite clicking with the standard .

That’s ok.

We are entitled to be ourselves.

Most importantly, love and accept ourselves.

On social / sensitive issues .. I think I tend to be different than most people too.

@scorpiolovedeep i think few people are actually themselves.

We are programmed from day one, by social and/or religious standards and second hand damamge .

I mean, i spend most of my time NOT being myself, just so i dont have to deal with rutted thinking.

Ive learnt to just let others think the way they do in RL.
We may be entitled to be ourselves ...but are we conscious enough, and strong enough to be ourselves🤷‍♀️

Agree that we are programmed by others and it is crucial that we listen to ourselves and be stronger.

@scorpiolovedeep i think its a matter of compromise.

The hardest thing ive learnt is: Sometimes you gotta go along, to get along.
I mean, if you're surrounded by robots, ive found its better to act like one, than rock the boat and cause conflict .
Its easier for the perceptive to comply, than it is for the conditioned to step outside their comfort zone.

I try to limit 'being myself ' to when i have the freedom to be it, without upsetting others.
Im just tired of stupid conflict .
