One of the most contemporarily biased thought holded by so may that seems to be a crowd is that individual center based autonomy is the top of mature thinking and emotionality.
They all follow the same pattern while proud of their "agency".
A paradox, right?
Another one of the kind is that "reality" is made of thought / awareness / conciousness / intention / so if Oh So Universal as Oh So Each One Is Soooooo Different.
I don´t follow THAT crowds,

@ElRengo Well, there could be worse things than being proud of thinking for yourself. I think we're all completely unique due to the experiences shaping us and some of us, just have this strong independence while some don't. That's okay too. I look at the Japanese (I lived there) and I love their culture as everyone works together, quite opposite to Western society.

There are worst things of course. Agree. And true that we are all unique. Right.
But same can be said about that a lot of the most significative things are due to what humans have in common.
I value and practice indeppendence of thought.
I don´t forget, anyway, that thought is ABOUT what is not the thought.
Just cos you brought Japanese culture I remembered a Zen saying that used to be told by one of my Senseis on the few occassions he was not silent.
The Moon is not the finger that points at it,
