Weve 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 Id 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 its 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.
Sometimes you just have to break the norms. It gives us that certain feeling that we need once in a while. Just don't go as far as going to jail, it is another story.
