A few days ago, I was reminded of a conversation that took place between me and two of my friends. The conversation was on how a person becomes an individual and how they are able to stand out in a society where no one can actually call themselves individuals because of their similar thoughts and action. Now many could (and have) argued with me on this one simply because genetically everyone is different, but if you were to really sit down and think about it society is what makes an individual and no one is completely different in thought from everyone in society because we are taught what to and not to accept. Our social norms and beliefs are what tie us together.
So, what do you think? Are we really individuals, or are we the product of a society that wants us to believe that we are different? You decide.
