Have you ever been called weird, or abnormal, i know it must have felt bad, i was one person who had been called and labeled throughout my life as a wierdo, i felt so bad that I struggled for a very long to be "normal" and to prove to people i could be the same as they were,for me to dedicate myself to being "normal" ,then you can imagine how shocked i was to discover the truth, that it was never meant to be so that in fact monotony was an evil, and not a thing of virtue.
A great poet, Raph Waldo Emerson once said
The virtue of art lies in detachment, in sequestering one object from the embarrassing variety
Hmm, thats big english o... okay let me explain, what makes a thing beautiful, or special is not how durable, how reliable it is ,or how much money is spent in purchasing it,rather what makes a thing special is IN its ability to be different, look at mount Everest, what do you think makes it so special, it is in its "being different" from hundreds of mountains around the world, same thing with the painting "monalisa" it is one of the greatest paintings in the world, and its all because the artist decided to draw differently,same thing with the IPhone , they are all uniquely different,and not just different but are better at it.
Your ability to be different is what gives you power and significance on earth
The society has made the idea of being different a bad one they even have a name for it "weird" , so to avoid being ostracised by them we struggle to fit in, but hey i come with good news you don't need to fit in, because you have a role to play, the earth is like a system we all have different unique roles to play in its development, our fulfillment is in being different and being better at it.
Break the monotony, You were created in that unique way, to go through those particular set of events to create the unique you for the fulfillment of a unique purpose , its your choosing to be different, weird, abnormal that bring forth greatness, so think in that manner, because normal men don't change the world world its d crazy ones that do.
When i was in senior secondary school,i had a close colleuge who was the best in class, but people disliked him because he was different, so one day i approached him on the matter, after telling him how people disliked him and all, then he gave me a reply i will never forget he said,he said
they laugh at me because I am different,but i laugh at them because they are all the same
One thing all great men had in common is that they were weird, crazy and not normal,to make a difference in the world you have to accept yourself as the "different you" and then choose to become better,because its our individual difference that adds colour to this already monotonous world.
