And Again...
Is
there really a certain way to act or dress that is classified as normal… or is
it more of normal to us as robots of society who can’t see anything that’s
different because our hard drive crashes and the only way of fixing the crash
is to isolate the person trying to be different... In society people are
socially out-casted because of what they wear, how they act, the things they
do. But are we truly allowed to judge the people that are our peers. I mean is
it really our place to say… our place for our opinion on what they like. A big problem
as a child I had was the fact that I wanted to go to the military, ever since I
was in third grade. In my school my choice was not socially accepted. I got
laughed at many times by the girls in my middle school and elementary school
because the military to them was classified as a man’s job. So for me to feel
accepted and a part the girls I changed my future profession to a wedding
planner; I mean what is more girly than a wedding planner, nothing, and yes
this got me in to the crowd but as I grew older and noticed how much I loved
what I wanted to do I finally accepted my difference and at the end of 8th
grade I told my parents I did want to go to the military and that was my little
moment of social acceptance because of course I believe that no one should be
judged because you never know someone until you’ve walked there path. This is a
big problem especially among us teenagers this out-casting leads to suicide,
depression, and even self-neglect which is not okay. What are we all monsters, can
we all not live in a place together and be different or as mentioned in one of
my favorite songs “America the brave still fears what we don’t know “and its
true we fear what we aren’t exposed to on a regular basis but why, why can’t we
just except the new thing and move on.
