There is something known as ‘Height of perspective”
One’s values directly correlate to the height from which they see reality.
The person standing on a 10 story office building sees a much smaller view compared to a person standing on an adjacent building, which is say the height of Burj Khalifa.
For the person on the Burj height, the all-encompassing concern of the 10th story person is barely an important thing, he sees far far wider and sees thereby has completely different values/goals/desires.
This might explain why some people can so easily settle down into society defined images while some others keep struggling to fit in, while secretly pursuing higher goals.
