Conformity.

Some people are better at conforming than others.  Generally, it means to comply, or agree.  Most of the time, however… “conformity” gets a bad wrap.  Great authors have often talked about surrendering to the cowardice of conformity, and such.

Yet.  If you live in society, a certain degree of conformity is required.  Without it, the fabric of that society would not work.  There’d be no jobs with standard guidelines.  Driving would be impossible.  Grocery stores would not functions without conformity.  And on and on.

Yet, with that said, I think sometimes it is good to think outside of the norms.

See new ways. Try new things.    And on occasion, say right out loud… the good ol’…. “What If.”

You see.  Getting along with others is good.  Being yourself in the process is better.

And if your robot wants to wear lipstick and a light blue pullover…  Rejoice and Be Glad.
