Life is a constant struggle between being an individual and being a member of the community

Sometimes you fit in. Other times you stand out. Sometimes you're outstanding. And other times you are outside standing like the pizza man. Its hard to maintain a uniform while trying to conform, and its hard to stand in uniform and feel free in your own form. There is a constant game of tug of war, from inside and out. Yourself wanting to be yourself and yourself wanting to be their self. But who better to be than me? Not Joe, Mary or Dave from the community. All human beings are weird. So to be weird like someone else is not normal and just...weird. Who is to say wearing your underpants outside your jeans is not normal and immoral. Yet, we immortalize heroes like Superman that are brave enough to wear it.
