7). Incompetence

Incompetence. The inability to function in the way society deems fit is fear of nearly half the population. How did I come to this conclusion? Simple. As humans, we are always looking for and scavenging for the secure connection we share with people within ourselves. Validation isn't mandatory, but is always appreciated. You can do it silently or out loud. Even if we choose not to acknowledge it. We, as empathic beasts, enjoy being praised without reservation. That is, as long as it is in some way neutral or positively targeted. But what happens when we can't discover the connection we've been looking for for so long, when we are rejected by society and forced to pursue a route that no one in their right mind wants to take? When we are truly defeated is when we must ask the question: are we really human?
