Convictions : personal choices or conformity

I have always admired,

ones with strong principles, 

making conscious choices,

going against consensus,

holding to their morality. 


It's normal to passively adhere, 

rules of traditions & cultures, 

some may protest, act as rebel,

to project individual intentions, 

only few acting for larger good.


We have seen many examples,

being ridiculed for their decisions, 

a vegan diet in carnivorous lifestyles, 

or monogamy in liberated societies,

shows control and discipline. 


For, living in a vegetarian household,

having limited power and resources,

devoid of options or incentives to indulge,

we were naturally inclined to work,

in these restrictive environments.


So, I have always admired,

their commitments for the cause,

showing integrity of characters, 

by overcoming these temptations,

demonstrating self-mastery.
