I believe in... Individualsm
I believe in the power of Individualism. I think that we were put on this world to do something. Whether it's something like share the Word of God, or play basketball, or play music, we were put on this world to share our talents. I think that even though we are different, we should be able to transcend social boundaries and unite as a community, a country, a world or, even more important, friends. I believe in the power of self-expression. I think that you show your style through the way you socialize, dress, or the people you surround yourself.
I think that people shouldn’t make judgements before really getting to know someone. For example, when I was younger I was awkward. I never knew how to talk to people. It was especially bad when I was in middle school: I never had many friends and a lot of people thought I was annoying. People just made assumptions about me and never got to know me. I was always made fun of, primarily behind my back. Even my "friends" made fun of me. I was usually made fun of about my people skills. It was especially bad because I didn't have someone to really talk to about it, but thankfully my savior, was my best friend Ryan he helped me through and was always a positive influence.
I think that individualism is greatly shown in the world. A great example of this is jazz. Jazz alone is the most self-expressive genre of music in the world. Jazz - pulls you in, tells a story - it proclaims love, hate, disparity, and happiness. Jazz comes from the heart, it's you either have it or you don't. It protrudes different forms: Cool, Hard, Blues, Funky, Ragtime, Swing, Dixieland, and they all transcend boundaries of Music in their own way. These forms also demonstrate how different and complex we really are. I think that the message of jazz is this: even though you hear a line like "Oh, my baby left me, and now I'm feeling the blues," every artist would sing it differently and put their individual ‘stamp’ on it. I think that even though people think the infamous Lady Gaga is crazy, I like her philosophy on individualism: you shouldn't listen to the ‘nay-sayers’. Just listen to your heart and your mind, do want you feel is right and what makes you feel good (well, besides murder or theft or just breaking the law in general). Be yourself - don't worry about what people think. We are all different for a reason, so do what you feel in your heart is right.
