Conformity is the deciding factor of what we do with our everyday lives.
It is said that humans want nothing more than to be their own complete individual "like no one else in the pack", but That's all lies.
Conformity like most social constructs are man-made.
We put this pressure on ourselves.
For a very very long time, we have destroyed the very path we wished to walk down and put up walls around us, so we keep in place.
No advancements made sense.
This trend has changed our collective view of the word individuality.
We have run individuality through the mud.
We have suffocated each and every independent person's voice.
Now we all sit in this silence no longer capable of speaking out, we can only wait and listen for instructions, and if anyone even dares to speak up or step out of line they are shut down immediately.
They are made examples of.
They are shunned and compared to ugly beasts.
This further is the silence.
We've created our own health that we chose to sit in.
