We’ve grown up listening to norms set by society. These norms are presented to us as sacred laws. Break them, and you are labeled “outcast’. Well being called an outcast excites me. I would feel proud if I’d be labelled as an ‘outcast’.
The most feared thing is “what would people say?” Well I say screw people and follow your heart. At the end of the day it’s your happiness that matters.
If in the eyes of society being a doctor is the only respectable job than that shouldn't stop you from following your passion of becoming an artist or musician.
obviously it doesn't mean you should do illegal stuff or harm other people.
