MicroAnomaly
微反常
Within the inevitable social network, what do we seek from the connections with others? How do we wish to locate ourselves among the mass? What are the side effects that we get from being involved with the social network?
Socialization, is undeniably the process that one is destined to experience throughout one’s social life, one may try to cater oneself to the values which the society expects one to present and thus change oneself gradually.
However, is this socialization process healthy? Or is it what we want? Do we want to be whoever the society expects us to be without having any personal traits?
I’d say “Not really”.
We wear what the society wishes us to wear, uniforms, formal suits, dresses, pencil skirts, ties and ironed shirts, but then we lose the chance to be ourselves.
One may wish to be oneself in a way instead of being exactly the same with others, yet not being too distinguished to be expelled from the original social circle. We are all born with a little rebellious sense, craving for being somewhat different from others.
Not an anomaly, but a MicroAnomaly.
MicroAnomaly is the next step toward finding our way back.
