Why do most people care so much about what others think? Are they afraid of society norms?

“Did I drape it wrong? Does it look too plain? Do I even look good?”

And so should we.

So the next time society glares your way, ask yourself: is it really worth giving your peace to their fleeting thoughts?

Why do Canadians think Canada is a viable country? Countries to be considered countries need to be mostly self-reliant, not dependent on another for survival. If we banned trade, Canada would go bankrupt bc you wouldn't get to offset your losses.

Take care!

The problem with caring too much about what others think is that we hand over our control to people who might not even notice us the way we think they do.

That moment, I realized something profound—most of the people staring weren’t even judging; they were just... looking. And the ones who judged? Well, they went on with their day just as I went on with mine.

Ah, society and its norms—always looming, always judging, isn't it? Let me take you back to an incident that forever changed how I view this question.

I was ready to bolt when my friend walked up to me, grinning ear to ear. “You look like a dream,” she said, loud enough for everyone to hear.
