Occupy 99% of What? Mediocris

Where is Man in all of this?  I see myself in this, I'm part of that.  Averages are insidious and do not define the individual. As soon as I become an aggregate, I surrender mySelf and kill my Identity. Aspiring to affirm mySelf, only then am I honest and coherent.  Our strength and courage is undermined by a need to belong, to become part of 99% of some group or some ideology. Abandoning the search for Self in a population allows us to discover and embrace all that we are, the totality of OUR own attributes. This is the difficult, frightening and painful  journey on which we must embark, the covenant we are obliged to make with ourselves....to be rather than to seem.
