If we think, act and believe as everyone else does, what makes us special? The truth is, if we allow ourselves to be governed by the expectations and dogmas of outside influences we are not special.We are simply a part of a group, a crowd, a faction which dictates how we are expected to think, act, and believe. We merely need to comply and we are instantly accepted into The Crowd...any crowd.There is no effort required on our part. By simply conforming to the expectations of the crowd we are immediately accepted into that crowd and presented with the illusion of being important.We relinquish our Individual Sovereignty for group acceptance.For many persons, this is quite alright.We also become part of The Crowd when we allow our thoughts,actions and beliefs to be governed by a news media which is constantly bombarding us with its own special, self-serving,brand of "information".Any time we are thinking, acting or believing the same way as"everyone else" we cease being unique and special. We cast aside our Divine Gift of Independent Thought.The Independent Thinker does not subject himself, or herself, to mob psychology. The Independent Thinker is a traveler on the road that leads to new ideas, concepts and innovations.The Independent Thinker does not partake in the by-laws and defensive rules and regulations that shackle The Crowd in its many different forms.The Independent Thinker operates outside the boundaries of group thinking and is a creator, a visionary, a dreamer. The Independent Thinker is the Lone Wolf that starts the wheel of change and innovation into motion.Independent Thinkers suffer the brunt of ridicule, criticism and discreditment only to be eventually proven correct, and worshipped as a hero, once their ideas and innovations are accepted by the mainstream of society. It is the Independent Thinker who is the David that smites the Goliath of mass stagnation and eventually improves a business, a life style, a society, a nation and a world.Our ancestors, we ourselves, and our posterity owe everything we enjoy, have enjoyed, and will enjoy to the Foresight and Awareness of the Independent Thinker.Each one of us is bestowed with the Divine Gift of Independent Thinking. However, until we choose to use our Free Will to experience this Divine Gift it will lie dormant within us.To embrace Independent Thought is to travel the "road less traveled". We will not "enjoy" the company of groups and crowds along the Way. But in the end we will enjoy the peace and contentment that comes with knowing that we are truly the Masterof our Mental and Spiritual Domains.

Everything being stated in this blog, is something that is very true, for every human being on this planet. We always let the media, people around us, or what we see on T.V. to play a role in who we become. If we start letting this happen when we are young children, we will grow up never knowing who we really are. To not let anyone influence our dicisons, and be who we are and be an independent individual, we really can be happy with ourselves and the lives we choose to live.
