If we’re all unique why do we spend so much time trying to be like everyone else? Why not be proud to be who we are?

I think I usually do it either to make myself more comfortable in a foreign environment, or to make others around me more at ease. Recently, I’ve been trying to do it less often.

Because we fear that if we’re too unique, our tribe won’t recognize us anymore as folk and they leave us behind in the winter to starve and freeze to death.

Humans are social beings. For most of our history, survival depended on being accepted. Conformity offered safety, comfort, and connection. Embracing who you are isn’t always easy, but it’s the truest way to belong, not by blending in but by letting your uniqueness enrich the world.
