A PSA to All

Is there ever a time in which it is not in our own best interest to make whatever we are doing the most fulfilling experience of our lives? Is there ever a good time to settle for something that we find undesirable, something we find to be boring or uninspiring? I am constantly told what to do, and because of it, when I am rarely asked what I want to, I am often left speechless or confused. We are raised to be obedient to those superior to us, and yet often, those people are anything but superior. We are taught to listen and not speak our true minds, to stay quiet and polite, and live in the shadows. There is nothing more detrimental to the mind and spirit than to quietly follow the rules set for us from generations before us. We need now more than ever to listen solely to our own spirits, other than the voices of those who have gained these positions of self proclaimed superiority. I cannot urge you enough to understand that what people say should have no effect on you other than motivation to further express your own individuality.
