In the age of social and digital media, the identity crisis is a serious problem.
People want to be identified and talked about, they are imbibing the same in children too which is a seriously worrying factor. In this process to get the attention people are doing some insane things to get attention!
They forget that by craving the wrong attention, they are misleading themselves about the true Identity they are gifted with.
People feel they have to be something special to get attention, rather than what they are gifted with! Understand that every creation is unique. By being somebody or by trying to be supernatural, we are spoiling our own identity, mimicking others, and not being truthful to ourselves.
This identity crisis problem is driving mob mentality in everyone!
People don’t understand individuality and misunderstand it as being different and being called different.
This shows a sense of insecurity in them, and the same reflects in society, too, in every aspect of life. That’s why we are not progressing as a society! Nations compare with other nations and try to mimic some other nation, rather than trying to understand that their social structure is different from the others, which is unique and they should work on. With this, a Nation cannot be built, as the soul of a nation, which is individuality, will be missing.
This is the reason why marketing theories are driving human thought!
The basic questions of who actually are we?
and what actually are we gifted with?
What we should be doing with this life?
And how are we connected in this web of life?
How are we being screwed, and how is this disturbing overall society’s web, which is a chain of everyone?
These questions proceed endlessly..
So as to shape a person into an Individual and character that is wisdom driven…
People should come out of the identity crisis and should stop being someone else in the name of being different. and start being themselves to understand what they are actually good at!
Let us not become blind followers of some untruth and misfortune. At the end of life when you ask yourselves what you are you find others, not what actually you are
Finally, I would like to conclude with a statement from the movie Departed which says:
I don’t want to be a product of my environment.. I want my environment to be a product of me.
-The Departed Movie
