Conformity is an essential part of every culture. It’s basic a
likeness and understanding that can draw people together. A culture who
has citizens who conform will be stronger. The regularity brings power,
and stability. Because if all men are equal, then those who are
together will become stronger than those alone. Conformity can be small
things as simple as speaking the lands native language, or it can
require more like following the laws and paying the taxes. It can even
mean following a religious deity or having an arranged marriage. It’s
just allowing yourself to be a part of the norm. There is truth in the
statement “united we stand, divided we fall”.
Conformity is a necessary tool of all real progression. People die,
and things are lost. That’s why cultures matter. Cultures have existed
longer than any man can remember, and effected many. If an idea, or
invention or anything else is good or substantial, it can be passed on
through a culture. Cultures make it possible for the thoughts and
actions of man to withstand mortality, more substantially. So by
adhering to a norm or a law, you can accept the knowledge of others. By
accepting and participating in a culture, you mix the ideals of others
with your own, for better or worse. It’s creates a never ending cycle
of the growing wisdom of more than one man. By conforming, it means
that mankind isn’t damned to repeat itself eternally, because every man
only works for himself. Our collective forms our culture, which changes
with everything we do. We can grow and become greater, rather than
simply existing.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve gone to school. School is a tool
of learning, and conformity. It prepares me to go out, and work for my
government. My knowledge and skill will most likely benefit my culture,
which will benefit others. All children are required to go to school.
This regularity of knowledge makes America stronger. It makes me
stronger, and it makes everyone around me stronger. I’ve been taught to
get a job, to get decent grades, and to respect others. All cultural
norms. Everyone contributes to society, though their actions. The more
educated people become, the richer their contributions to society
become, and the faster society will be able to change. The more
educated America is, the faster it will advance, and the more educated
America will become.
Conformity is the basis of any successful culture. It will bring
strength to a society. By conforming, it makes it possible for mankind
to progress, and become greater. By conforming, your actions can live
longer than yourself. So, without a basic amount of it, nothing will
change for the better. No one gets an ice cream cone if they do no
stand in the single file line.
