What's something that has become widely accepted but goes against your values?
As someone who deeply values authenticity and emotional depth, I've often found it difficult to navigate how superficiality and social expectations have become so ingrained in modern life. The pressure to conform to an ideal of "success" based on material wealth, status, or appearance feels at odds with the things I hold dear, like meaningful connections and the pursuit of inner growth. It’s easy to get lost in the noise of society, but I believe staying true to what really matters—whether that's embracing vulnerability, connecting with others on a deeper level, or simply living with integrity—is essential for true fulfillment.
I’d love to hear from all of you—what are the values that guide your life, and how do you resist the pressures of societal expectations? What are the things that you see being widely accepted today but don't align with your own beliefs?
