In this episode, I reminisce on a conversation I had with a good friend of mine. What does it really mean to be 'somebody'? and how does this affect our outlook on life?
Its a given in society that to be considered as 'somebody' we have to acquire money, status, degrees, recognition of sorts and certain accolades. But does this really determine person-hood? should they be such a strong criteria for our consideration of people?Â
From what I have found this mindset causes more harm than good to not just individuals and how we see ourselves but also our interaction with others and our productive contribution to society.Â
