Independence: Wandering Thought #220

Wandering Thought #220: Independence

While we must realise that we are interdependent in this world and require harmony to co-exist, we must also each maintain our independence of thought and action. This is so as both individually and in groups, the world has always been improved first by those with independent thought, that later gathers support of more who concur, leading to group efforts for change. Living with static conformity with the status quo is not being truly alive, and it never makes the world a better place. The challenge is to challenge the world in the right ways, for what is more right.
