Nandini Bohra, Class IX E
We all believe in the idea of individuality. Individuality, a feeling or rather your ability to differentiate between others and you. Not all of us possess it, in fact, only a few of us do. And that’s sad! You might count yourself in the privileged list of individuals. But let me tell you, you barely even make it to the end of it. Anyway, who am I to say this? I am a person in the same state as you, so I have the right to speak up.
Why are we constantly trying to get in rather than stand out? Why are we always trying to fit in the stereotypes this society has set? Why are we thinking of others’ opinion more than ours? Why?
After a lot of pondering, I got ‘my’ answer. Insecurities. A word I didn’t even know existed till a few years ago. Insecurities make such a great impression on our hearts that we are unable to differentiate between insecurities and actual flaws. Actually, we are all living an illusion as big as this earth.
