Personal development

When I was very young, towards the end of my first decade of life, I used to think of 'Sunday' slow drivers. That was the appreciation then in the days of an awareness deficit. Deficit is possibly the wrong word as it suggests that once 'plenty' has been reduced. Something taken away. Like freedom. Like responsibility.

A breakaway from society's standards. I have always been considered a 'bit of a rebel', but challenging something you disagree with is very healthy. Mentally refreshing. Being in control of your own destiny and not being directed by others. I am not alone. Millions, maybe billions (hopefully), think like me.

It would be called subversion in less 'free' societies than UQ (aka UK).
