Don't get me wrong on this one, I believe in being social, contributing to community, and avoiding the appearance of evil. With that said, I think it is debilitating to make choices based upon what other people think of you, your family, or your situation. We buy houses, cars, and toys we can't afford to impress people we don't know or don't like; we sometimes ostracize family members or friends when they don't fit the mold and we fear being judged; and we are sometimes too scared of failure in others' eyes to follow our dreams. You've served your sentence, time to get out and live!
