Shower talk: Breaking rules shouldn't break you

I'm sorry this shower talk is in caps, I was super ecstatic when I wrote it.

Usually, we fear breaking rules because we think its consequences might break us, break our emotional state of well being, break our acceptance in society etc. But, hear me out~


IT'S ALMOST NORMAL TO BREAK PETTY RULES AS LONG AS THE MAJOR RULES AREN'T BROKEN JUST LIKE IN THE UNIVERSE WHERE THE PARTICLES GO ACCORDING TO THE FOUR FUNDAMENTAL FORCES AND IT'S SO NORMAL (it's not like something that would almost make you "not supposed to exist" in the universe) TO BREAK THE OTHER INSIGNIFICANT RULES AND IF YOU DO YOU'RE JUST DIFFERENT FROM THE REST. For instance, when the nitrogenous bases are paired in the DNA, the DNA polymerase might break the conventional pairing rule of A to T and G to C. These "variations" could cause a mutation which could probably even lead to speciation! It's thanks to these "rules being broken", species have evolved. I DON'T EVEN THINK IT'S CALLED "BREAKING A RULE" IT'S JUST DIFFERENT IN THE WAY IT IS BECAUSE IT DOESN'T FOLLOW THE SAME STUFF AS its kind and that's what makes it what it is but I'm not here to say "break the rules", I'm just here to say "it's okay to break the rules" and sometimes breaking rules can make you stand out, be different. Be EXCEPTional.
