"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." ~ Schopenhauer
This holds good to all the human emotions one goes through when you are moved from your cozy spot to more dire situations... First you ridicule the decision of what happened, and then you violently oppose it and with time u accept what has perspired... Sometimes this happens while you know and sometimes it all happens subconsciously without you even having the faintest idea of what you are doing... The only thing that is permanent and happening all the time is change and change is something inevitable… The faster you pass through these 3 stages the more adaptive and the better one becomes… The word for this adaptability is institutionalized...
So have you been institutionalized...????
PS: I dint have anything else to write about on a boring Monday morning, please bear with me… :P

Institutionalised.. is accepting the character of an institution.. more like following rules because it is not possible for that person to go against... 'Getting adapted to' and becoming a 'better one' is when he not just accepts but understands that the rule or the decision that has been taken or he/she has to take is for his/her own good.
If you are made to follow some rules, accept something by force, then you are being institutionalised whereas if you can think and choose for urselves, then you are not.
Who is this Schopenhauer guy anyways?
