The greatest prison we live in is the fear of what other people think.
The question is, why do we place so much importance on what others think of us? So much so, that we will not say what we think and not do what we want?
We are placed in school from the tender age of three or four, and what do we learn from the very beginning? To conform, to fit in, to follow and to obey.
Before we are allowed to develop freely into who we might be, we are placed with others and measured up constantly against them.
We grow up needing and wanting to ‘fit in’, hence our personalities develop as a blended mix of who we are, and what others have made us to be, or want us to be, or expect us to be.
Through both peer pressure and indoctrination, our essence gets buried under so many layers, that we don’t even get to know it.
Meanwhile, everyone around us seems to love us for that which we have been made to be, so why rock the boat?
We grow up getting complimented for following norms and rules, we get patted in the back for conforming and obeying. We measure ourselves against our peers, who have in turn, been put through the same system and told to behave in the same way, so as long as you stick to the social charade life is good. But is it?
It’s safe, and we got addicted to safety from childhood because whenever we dared speak our minds, or do things differently, we got into trouble.
In a world where the ego is still the driving force behind most of our decisions and actions, being complimented, applauded, accepted and praised by others has become more important than being true to ourselves.
In fact, most people don’t even know who they are, they have become a product of the system and they don’t even know it. That is the psychological prison they’ve built for us. That is the matrix.
I have often said, how the seeking of truth about the world around you, will eventually lead you to finding the truth about yourself, this is exactly where we are now.
As you beging to question, to doubt, to ask, to look and to research, you will begin to recognise the layers of deception around you and this in turn will make you acknowledge the layers of deceipt within you.
It’s time to strip them off. It’s time to step out of that societal comfort zone that has the real ‘you’ hidden and imprisoned.
Daring to speak your mind, unafraid of what others might think, is none other than you holding the key to the cage, unlocking it and stepping out.
Freedom is not something others grant you, freedom is something you were born with but relinquished, only you can claim it back.
Speaking your mind, discovering who you are and daring to be just that, are the first steps to freedom.
Nobody can do that for you, but we can do it together.
