People have become so image-oriented, so desperately afraid to fail or look bad, they have stopped growing.
People are paralyzed by their own vanity and fears. They are afraid to stand out, be different, make a mess, or just take a chance. Never have you seen so many grown adults just pick something to follow, like a celebrity, talk show personality or ideology, instead of being themselves.
Life is messy. It’s supposed to be. If you can’t take a risk, then you’re not living life, you’re just following something else.
