Week 5 Topic One

I believe that individuality is very important. We were all created to be different, with each and every person being special in some way. I think that we should cherish our differences and strive for individuality because that is the only way we can be truly honest to ourselves. I do believe that one can be an individual and also work in harmony with society. If you are true to yourself, everyone else will respect you, and thus you will be able to work in harmony with society. To me, individuality is far more important than conformity. It is much better to be happy with yourself and who you really are than to try to be someone you're not just to conform to someone else. Like I stated above, being true to yourself will allow others to respect you for who you really are, and you will also earn people's respect for holding true to your true character and likes/dislikes.
