Normally deviated

On the onset of realisation that I am closer to senility than my youth on life's chronology, it warrants me to look back onto my "becoming". Since I can never shove the fact that we are social beings, I wanted to shift the focus from me to what the society has become. This view is from a mere observer and does not hold any academic substance. In general what we say from one's heart.
I would say this is the "standardised society". Everything is standardised, for instance our educational system. Bunch of people clammed together being taught the same syllabus, same information is thrown to all regardless of individual's capability to apprehend. 
Also the concept of success is quite standardised, it revolves around money, influence, personal charisma etc with adage, more the merrier.
We are stacking humans in a normal distribution, and this structure gives birth to inherent hatred at worst and dislike at best to outliers who lie on the right side. In this normalised society where individuality is murdered, no one wants to be among the "lost souls". Systematically they are pushed to struggle hard and have to face victim blaming. I will conclude that in these times, once deviated, one should ask for help sooner than later,,,

Some observations on love

 In our collective consciousness, an idea has seeped in that love should be unconditional. The yardstick to judge quality of love is always appropriated with the adage, "how unconditional the love is".  The confusion arises from the imaginative part of love, when we imagine the purest love, we always associate unconditionality to it. In practice, love is very "conditional", just imagine one finds out the person they loved to the core of their heart, is a serial killer or a pedophile etc. Your love will dry out or at least won't be the same (if it doesn't then you have to answer some questions on your own and love will be the least problem on your plate). In reality, "condition" is something inherent to practical love. I believe when someone asks you why you love them, you should not have any reasons.  If you have reasons then you can always question them, "why" can interject along with comparison and that will be the start of the end. I believe love should be "unreasonable" and not "unconditional".
