I do feel that there are individuals that have a tendency to do their own thing. Having said that, let me explain, and I draw that from my own opinion. There are so many people in the world that simply follows the masses, and in doing so they become one of the big group. Everyone looks the same, thinks the same and gravitates to the same norm. Sometimes it is difficult not to follow the masses, but there are those times when you feel obligated to stand up and do what you want to do. To look at  life the way that you feel it has to be looked at, just to instill that spark of sanity and self identification into yourself.  

Whatever it is you are doing, grab hold of it and keep it in your heart for as long as you can. It is people like you that makes the world bearable, and not a bunch of clones walking around and following the masses.
