We are all bombarded with ideas that we are supposed to live up to every day. Some of us measure our views based on what we think (I use the word here loosely) our peers are thinking. This is a trap for the mind.
You should never compare yourself or your views to anyone else as their motives are unknown. Rather try to think for yourself. Divest yourself as much as is possible with your own prejudices, values and attitudes and then try to think about the topic or subject at hand.
What do you make of this photograph below?
It is almost impossible to be completely objective as our value system is hard wired to our most fundamental state. The survival of the organism...you. Therefore the act of trying to be value free is in itself value laden.
It is a difficult road but it is your road.
Comparing yourself to someone else is like comparing an apple to an orange. They are both fruits but entirely different.
Finally in terms of happiness. Comparing yourself to others in terms of success (whatever you deem that to be) is the road to confusion, misery and depression.
Have a fabulous weekend all. Steem on!
