Why ? Can we ever analysis this within us that how (Blackish) Orthodox we become where we always claim in people gatherings and in social circle that we were like (Bluish) open sky.
(I smoke with my left hand, I always need my breakfast on time, Blue-Pink-Black-Purple-- was my favorite color, I never ever do this & that, Its not my kinda thing, How one can think that I would be the part of it, I never carry my son or daughter when beautiful lady is in front of me, I can't go when its raining, I can't dance, I'm man and how can I say my daughter or son that baby-please don't do this, etc. List was endless. These are some very common activities)
We were slave of our habits and to stood differently among the bunch of people we make this habits. It was fair if it is used to teach someone or to make somebody learn that particular habit make him more perfect or complete. But, teach him too that once in a while leave that habit behind and act as a normal person when its not harmful and nobody is effected with that.
For Example : Teachers always make some activities there routine habit. ( Always wear black & white, Throw chalk when somebody talk, Always use particular word when get angry, etc.). Fine, they had there own style but Mr. Teacher don't act this when you were walking with your wife or with your son in evening, Don't react in same manner as you are in classroom and when some student visit your home. Let them teach the purpose of both the places.
In my words, I'm firm believer that people learn more while observing others. React like Director when you are in office but act like Joker when you are on picnic with your office staff. I don't think that specific orthodox habits put you in limelight, If it is than maybe they consist wrong reason within.
Mahatama Gandhiji had habits which were followed a lot by his followers but nobody become like him because with his orthodox style, he was very much flexible in lot of activities and that make him unbeatable and memorable.
It should be the good ratio of Sturdiness & Flexibility which makes you a cheerful person. Sturdiness shows the consistency, seriousness & firmness of yours and whereas Flexibility shows the wonderful, sublime & elegant style of yours.
You can't be same in Office, Gym, Pool and at Home. How one can be even though if he is president or prime-minister of any country? Think it.
Our life is made of so many different & movable Blocks and mankind is always busy to make every block intact within them. Otherwise they move to somebody else. To make more and more blocks to your side you must be sturdy as well as flexible.
I think I wrote lot of stuff and I too take care of flexibility...so see u soon.
