I question a lot of things. Culture, authorities, normal everyday people, statements, beliefs. I love it.

Being a rebel really is a Blessing in disguise.

[@nayabsiddiqui3002]

This talk is mega under-rated. Somebody promote this... Being a rebel, others ill always have an edge against you. But life's happening on the other side. Which starts when you take the leap and leave that edge.

3 years since your comment! i'm just seeing it now. that was me in the video. just curious...@nayabsiddiqui3002, after a few years does this video still hit home for you?

[@adriandenriquez]

I have a rebel attitude and I relate much to this. The only cons of being a rebel that most of the times people won’t understand you or support you. But screw it! 💯

[@BlueStranger1]

Same Here 👍

Or they think we’re mentally ill or have low IQs.. which may be true who knows! But what I do know. Is we truly live by right and wrong. We follow a code. A code that is far more morally correct, than any of the yes mans could ever imagine. And we will. Live by the second. Minute hour, day. Truly experience it.

There's a part of this speech that I kept putting on repeat and it gave me goosebumps Everytime. I'm stealing it.

[@CainSuzuko]

I hate being controlled. People can give me rules and I'll happily oblige, but the moment they verbally tell me to adhere to the rules, I get pissed off and I become more likely to not obey. I know what I need to do so shut up.

[@lakshyavarshney9942]

But still moralistic boundaries and respecting diversity?

It's easier to tell your boss to pound sand when your family was the only one in your rural school who could afford golf lessons.

[@iamboketto592]

I never enjoyed and felt so informed with this tedtalk, man this need to be promoted.

[@moonlightstargem1006]

I realized I wouldn’t get very far in the world without depending financially on my adopted family. They are pretty easy with me so they are not very controlling ❤thankfully. And i have empathy and a good moral compass so i’m less likely to get into trouble if i know any better. Back then i didn’t know any better. I had a lot of rebellion in my youth. I hated the rules

[@Anahita554]
