Do you realize the gap between right and wrong is faded?

Living following the social standards is something easy for someone who loses their identity. As a normal, each of us is unique, not a replica. If you think deeply, the social framework is not the truth like the dolphin is a mammal or water freezes at 0 degrees. Nope, even the facts I give are man-made. Right…Exactly, people create their own way to evaluate and apply it every time, with any person they meet. You will be more suspicious about that when you ask is there anything unchangeable. If the answer is yes, my opinion is not for you. If you are the others, it’s likely that we will have the same reach to the problem.

‘That girl is bad and playgirl because of her silver hair, some tattoos.” That is the way adults evaluate a person. More terribly, they think the rest of the world thinks so. It would be true if they lived in their era. Appearance has never been considered how a person is in my era. My parent hates dying hair, I love dyed hair. My parent hates torn pant, I think that is so cool. My parent lives for social, for children, I live for nothing except myself.

What do I mean? Right or wrong is just relative and contemporary. From my parent's perspective, a mature girl must marry a man and build a happy family. Yep, it is still true but not for all. In case I feel pleasure with alone life, I have obvious responsibly is marry, don’t I? I use responsible to indicate something you don’t like to do but other external factors force you to do it.

Each time my sister is hurried to marry, she always asks why she can’t live alone happily. Of course, my parent can’t give any reasonable explanation for this requirement. The answer is just “ You must marry, why don’t marry”, “ Not marry means unstainable life, a big loosing in a life”. No matter how many time she says she still feel good with her current life, they refuse all.

Being an outsider, I know that is a rooted and unchangeable view. Others do if you don’t do that, you give thousands of ridicule eyesight, thousands of rumors, thousand of backbiting. And that was popular in past not now. Not marrying is wrong or right. Were you to have prejudice, you have the answer.

The world is changing like the way perception shifted from old to new.

In the end, we only regret the chances that we didn't take
