to our own kind...it is only natural for our being. We see that life can be shared with, that we can connect with some one else, as a group or a bond. We find things that are popular, and those that are not popular. Sometimes we want things because others like them, which makes us want them. We seek others for hope...and for guidance. We live in society...as well as live in privacy.
Let us look at it this way. It is the same with a brand or a non-brand. Brand names are expensive because of demand...as well as buying the brand name itself, or in other words, the advertising and knowledge of the product. Yet, we find non-brands, that cost much less...they don�t advertise as much, yet it isn�t that popular, so you might want to think twice before you can ruin your reputation.
Which is better? You never know if you never attempted such. We don�t know if a brand is better or worse than a non-brand, we follow the crowd, and what it tells us to buy. And we find that is what we want to buy as well.
It is the same for ourselves. Some of us cherish individuality...as well as treasure community. Some of us are popular, some of us are loners. Some of us are in between, and some of us mode in both phases at different times. Since we, as one being, is a society ourselves.
A majority. A universe. What exist in our own mind, is a rule we all follow. What is popular for our own individually, as well as what is not popular. Inside each and every one of us, what lies inside is what counts, as well as what lies outside. We follow are own government, our own "isms". Inside us, lies family, control, logic and reason, faith and feeling. Our own realm of illusion.
Learn your own universe, and you will learn the universe of others. The majority of one.
