Blogs > Within and Inside

This blog is one about symbiosis. Its purpose is to help those out there going through hard times to find solace within. Through the act of questioning our society’s issues and dilemmas, as well as comparing large scale problems to personal ones, we can find a better understanding as who we truly are and how we truly operate. Once we have a firm understanding to this inner dimension our problems will seem less problematic.   This is, perhaps, the grandest of all goals.

Fitting the Mold

As human beings, we are all trained to conform to whatever society we grow up in and so inherit the surrounding traits. We are like sponges becoming whatever liquid we soak up. Studies show experiment after experiment that most humans even act differently depending on what they are wearing. Yes, an outfit can and will change your attitude towards the world around you. It is fairly common knowledge that people react differently depending on how others are reacting to you. But someone acting differently based on what they are wearing, that is a bit of a shocker. Perhaps it is the drive to play the role our clothing seems to suggest. Perhaps there is a subconscious switch that flips on when reminded of a classic figure or model. Next time you go out on a casual outing, put on something you normally wouldn't wear and observe not only others, but yourself. Pay attention to your mannerisms and responses. Detect what has changed from your normal activity. You might find that you do far more acting in your life than you thought.
