There is this need for individuality that presses at the core of most people but less so for others. I listened today as someone I knew expressed to me something as plain as interaction and in listening to them realized that this person did not realize how much their life was ruled by the opinions and actions of others. I thought to myself how different people are even friends and for a second wondered if this was the reason why occasionally i questioned our friendship. I after all value my need to be an individual and not the kind that mimics the needs of others t be individuals but just to express Shari as Shari and not some collection of those that surround me. STOP! this is the part where I sell you the swindle of an UNIQUE spirit but in selling you this swindle I must acknowledge about four things...

FIRST! it is not possible to not be affected by the opinion of others, if life is a growing experience and our experiences are tied to interactions and those interactions are tied to people then inevitably, we are all product of the opinions of other people.

SECOND: when i say individuality i am expressing the idea that what you feel or think should not become the product of those around you. You can be a republican because you were raised by republicans but u do not have to agree with all of the republican agenda.
