The essence of a field is that the cultural accommodates the natural there. The human being makes room for and makes use of those organisms that are not him. In that way the field is a poem to symbiosis, and a human contract with the natural.

Whatever you do, be happy with you. Don't conform. You are who you are, and you shouldn't change that for anybody.

The idea of having to conform to someone else's ideal is unacceptable. I'm gonna be me. And if I can't be me, then I'd rather not do it.

Our desire to conform is greater than our respect for objective facts.
