Life experiences

Life challenges

They all shape who we become

They mold us into individuals

Throughout life however that individualization is lost

We all just tend to conform

It’s the social norm they all say

It’s what others call right

We have created a fixed mindset

To go with the flow

To accept things because others do

We stopped questioning things

We settled for labels and stereotypes

Using filters that filter out the uniqueness of individuals

Hiding behind false beliefs

Created only because they were enforced by the masses

We try so hard to blend in

We forget who we truly are

But no more!

Lose the filters

Let your individuality shine

Take pride in being unique

From the very first day

To the very last day

You can only be you

That’s something you don’t need a filter for
