We are often torn apart by contradictions. It can be difficult to know which is worse: our own inner demons or the opinions of others. Humans are never truly alone. In the modern world, even sitting in our own room, we can be on display for everyone to see. We may not go outside, but we enter the online world and attract the attention of hundreds of people. Even during the hours when we are not communicating with anyone, we are full of thoughts, contradictions, and stereotypes that tear us apart. We are never truly alone.

The question is whether we can cope with this and remain ourselves. Or do we succumb to the influence of others?

How can we maintain our individuality in a world that constantly tells us who we should be?
