It’s an ever-present voice telling us to question things, break complacency, and push our boundaries. Sometimes we listen to it, and sometimes we don’t.
Every voice of rebellion is different. While some disrupt the game, some bend the rules. While some roar, some persist in silence. Each one has a different cause and a different way. And in our individual acts of mutiny, we all contribute something unique to this world.
I believe for the sake of discussion, we can sort rebels into two groups – the blatant ones and the quiet ones. While the first ones are very out there and strongly voice their disagreements, the second ones are very gentle and operate under the radar. The latter ones often get overlooked but their actions speak just as loud if you know how to listen.
The gentle ones have a special place in my heart, maybe because I relate most with them. I love how they go about their daily life with their quiet and stubborn defiance.
I feel so happy when I see someone revive an old hobby they had lost growing up. I feel proud to see someone change their career to pursue their passion. I feel seen, when someone marks their way, and then follows it with everything they’ve got.
I believe the world be a more awesome place if we listened to our rebel voices more often! Don’t you agree?
