Uniqueness
The other
day, while I was teaching an English class, the funniest thing occurred to
me!!! One of my students, one amongst many others who also share the same
perspective, was saying: “oh well, I’m
used to being strange and different. That’s just the way I am”. I looked at her
and smiled. Aren’t we all different?
The hilarious
thing is that we are! But still, for a large portion of our lives, we feel strange
for being different. Nevertheless, we
aren’t supposed to be the same, otherwise we would just might as well be
manufactured as clones in an assembly line somewhere in the Universe ;)
So in fact,
there’s nothing wrong or right with being different. The problem is created
when we try not to be. That’s why life becomes such an effort. The short cut to
freedom is understanding this and quitting the “pretend to be the same” game.
Unless, of course, it is fun to play it.
Actually it
is a regular thing, to be different. It is the norm, not the exception. The
exception is trying to be the same! lol Hurray to yet another layer of mass illusion :)
