"Here's what I mean by building your own subculture...
I don't mean you disregard every rule of your community. I don't go around naked, for example. I don't run through red lights. The little things, I can obey. But the big things - how we think, what we value - those you must choose for yourself. You can't let anyone - or any society - determine those for you."
~ Mitch Albom from Tuesdays with Morrie
How are you doing on the “big things”?
You letting society determine the things you truly value? You following your heart or your conditioning?
What ONE “big thing” have you let society determine for you? What you should do for a living? Who you should be with? How you fully express yourself?
Take it back. Make it yours. :)

More thoughts from Morrie on the subject:
"The culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. And you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesn't work, don't buy it."
