It is good advice that "when you are in Rome, behave like the Romans". But my advice is, don't forget who you are if you are not a Roman.
Whenever we find ourselves in critical situations, we may either adjust ourselves to suit prevailing circumstances or adjust circumstances to suit ourselves. In the process, we may lose alignment with our core selves and our dreams, and get lost in the crowd if we are not well guided by our intellect as well as our instincts in balance. Since the events of life may not conform all the time to our expectations; since uncertainties must come, we then need to be ready to adjust and adapt as occasion may demand. But ensure never to alter who you are at the very core. Don't give room for things that are not in line with your original making. You can't be too helpless to accept another man's life leaving your own life unfulfilled. You can't be too hungry to the point of eating your own tongue. Know who you are and never forget it!
