Not people but individuals

People and individuals sound similar, don’t they? However, there is a slight but huge conceptual difference between them. Every time we speak about people we regard to people in general, without focusing on the uniqueness of each person. Individuals tend to be worthy and special people who really deserve to be named as individuals. In fact, they don’t try to follow standards and they get others’ appreciations.

So let’s say people, ‘just’ people, are playing in a lower league. Many of them superficial people just trying to create an image just to fit in this society.

I can’t stand arrogant people who think they are more than others just following such a stupid way of measuring as how popular you are on social networks. Consequently, they get what they give, their biggest aspiration is to become a tasty piece of meat, without caring about their thoughts or feelings.

Recently, I have realized how basic people are, without any considerable goal in their lives, living among predictable conversations instead of going beyond, looking disable for going deeper.  Indeed, some of them are nice, maybe they won’t have deep talks often but at least they enjoy their lives and they transmit good vibes. Nevertheless, others just spend their miserable lives submerged in envy, jealousy, dishonesty and arrogance. Therefore, you can only get negative vibes from them, even if they look as if they were OK among them and they try so hard to show a fake image of cool people through social networks. Come on, don’t be so simple! ;)



As far as I am aware, I like the primary concept of social networks, which should be sharing beautiful and interesting content with your friends, moreover, inspiring each other and to be a flown of knowledge. But it’s actually quite far from the reality, where you can find many bullshit and fake interactions among some worthy posts made by individuals who are succeeding because of being themselves.

I wouldn’t say image itself is not important at all, it is useful to call people’s attention on first impressions. Actually, it is easy to call the attention on people, the difficult aim is to reach their hearts, what’s more, to be unforgettable to them. This is a pretty nice reason to exist, even more in these times that looks like humanity is getting mad. Improving as individuals should be a must do task for everyone.  

Indeed, travelling is a good way to improve ourselves, after seeing other cultures and personalities, you not only appreciate more what you have an who you are, but you also learn from other points of view. In this way, you can add lessons to your knowledge that you couldn’t have in your hometown.
To sum up, I would encourage you to be a nice individual, to stablish goals in your life, to be passionate with what you do, to enjoy and be yourself.

I recently heard a phrase that I love: ‘never change’, which means you are doing a great job :)
