Do You Live Under A Rock?
Do You Live Under A Rock? [not literally though]. Truth is, many of us, at some points in our [misguided [or worse, till the present]] past, we tend to live and exist as if we are underneath the rock, to an extent that we are unaware and oblivious of the things happening around us, even those happening right at our very nose📕📗📘Unfortunately, some of us tend to still Live Under A Rock. On a first person account, I have witnessed some who were not only eccentric and odd if not bizarre or downright outlandish. Typically, if someone lives at another's home, rightfully he/she is expected to be observant and sensitive enough of the day-to-day practices in that home. Frankly, unless you are a paying tenant, being an external party, the owners and host of that home shouldn't adjust to that 'external' person but instead, it should be the other way around. Talking about being 'IN SYNC' with everyone else💹💹💹 Instead, I have [surprisingly] witnessed some who had the 'nerves' to live on his/her 'OWN TERMS' instead of having that mutual co-existence with the host/owners. Having the temerity to be the 'ODD MAN OUT' is very much embraced if everyone else is a villain except you yourself. Unfortunately, such eccentricity will heavily influence one's behavior [and even character] even at the workplace. And that raises a 'RED FLAG' if one's behavior and even discipline at the workplace is not consistent anymore with CONFORMANCE and COMPLIANCE💊💊💊
Under normal circumstances, we detest it if someone gets isolated and eventually, existing like an 'outcast' because sometimes, the majority could be mistaken to be playing the 'mob rule' card but how else can people play their cards in a normal way if someone tends to put up that invincible wall between him and the rest? Unfortunately, there are no UPSIDEs when one Lives Under A Rock The FIX? Immerse and assimilate with what prevails out there. And which I did when I chose to live in Singapore for close to nine years. Despite its cross-cultural environment, I got to immerse myself and assimilate with what prevails out there because certainly, I didn't want to Live Under A Rock📌📌📌
