How much does society influence my life?

How come one lives 'just for society': while life is all about 'living for oneself'?I have found the contradiction perplexing!What and how of eating, sleeping, dressing, walking, talking, all these has fixed set of rules and guidelines.And, if you do overstep boundaries, you will be laughed, scorned or mocked at!And those who haven't cum across such reactions, beware of backtalk.
Is this influence good or bad?
Have you ever wondered how we will be without society?
What exactly forms the society? Why is it playing a major role in one's life?
Imagine being stranded alone on an unidentified island (KNPH types, but alone, of course).
Will your behavior be any different from what it is now?
If your answer is "no", you didnt get my question.
If you reply with a hesitant "maybe yes", you are beginning to see the truth.
If you answer, "drastically", you have seen light.
Think of how a kid behaves when no one is watching!
We all have so many desires, interests, passions which we ourselves crush so that we look good in the eyes of the "society".How can this influence be classified? Does it bring in order and peace into the society or does it clip our wings and create stereotypes? Is it the necessary evil kind of thing? Then can something be done to reduce the evils of society? Any answers?
