You're not a beautiful unique little snowflake
adrenaline junkee, 22:36h
Who doesn't know all these songs and articles about equality and individuality? There are plent of them and I think we all agree with those songs. We're thinking we are special or that we want equal rights for everybody and why is everone else so ignoranzt not to see that?
Well, I thought the same way, but only for a moment or two, but if you think about it: is there something like individuality and equality for real?
We're always fighting for equality between genders and races etc. on the other hand we want to be seen as individuans and it seems to me like everybody's saying he's special and stands out from the crowd, but if everybody's "special" nobody is special for real, cause to be special you have to be different than all the other what you don't do, cause everybody's "special".
This would lead us to the point that we are all equal.
But equality doesn't exist either. There'll always be some differences between genders, races, poor and rich people and a lot of more you know in which class you belong.
That's why I think we all belong to specified classes, which is difficult to be concret about.
Equality and individuality is just possible within those small classes, but can you truely say you're special because you're different than a handful of people? Can you really say you have equal because there are some people with the same rights and opportunities?
So just be happy by beeing yourself, knowing there are many other people out there who are just like you, you just don't know them, but they are there.
