“It’s saying you must include each of the following: nonconformist” Can someone please do this for me fix it up and btw thank you a lot

When we think of nonconformity, to me this is a state of being In which an individual has a since of pride and pose about themselves. This cannot be confused with being conceited, but modest a form of modesty that brings assurance and clarity to decision and actions. While reading ralph waldo emerson essay "Self-Reliance" । began to believe that what he dems as nonconformity would be known as today "Independence" this form of Independence is really focused on one's ability to detach themselves from their surroundings, people, situation and relationships. In this life, we are taught many things that are given labels but no one really question those labels as to why they are there. The idea of thinking outside of the box is frowned upon and what we heard many times in elementary school " work the problem exactly how you see it in the back book, there is only one way to solve this problem" in which to some appeared to be foreign to this idea and created multiply ways to present answers. The Idea of nonconformity to me appears to be very important because I believe people need to have this form of comfortability and freedom to grow an never be shaped or sculpted into the liking of someone else. I believe nonconformity is the very thing that enables an individual to be human and express those feeling, lifestyles and liberties. I also realized while reading Emerson's essay that one should not yield oneself to other people who wish to control them and take from us our power. This gives that individual power which can stunt one's growth in spirit, my mind and body. We should look and strive to be different never desiring to be like others for we are who we are. We are human in our own right.
