There have always been the men and women who have gone against their own society to challenge beliefs, in order to find new ways of proving theories true and false, for instance the great scientist Galileo, who challenged his countries own beliefs to try and prove his own theories, but was eventually thwarted and kept silenced. But what about the men and women who don’t have the correct image or the appearance of what a society expects of you?

You might even like the free life now that you can dwell anywhere you feel; yet 90% of the world will always shun you out of the world.
If you are brave enough, and have the will to challenge society, and to accept you’re individualism, you will find many great difficulties, but everyone should aspire to be their own person rather than trying to be like others. Being as individualistic as you are,
