What makes you different?

What makes you different?

Neither I’m Tesla, who got poor grades in school, nor I’ve grown to invent electric current that powers many electronic devices today. Nor I’m an entrepreneur who is the idea behind the Tesla cars.

Until the day I choose to listen to myself. I let my subconscious go wherever it wanted me to go. It was not just in dreams I wanted to live, but in real life. Not allowing others to cloud my personality, my ability, my inclination towards philosophy, knack to motivate others, and my indifference towards others’ opinions.

Tried everything. A well-paying corporate job, govt. exams. Nothing provided me with security. I didn’t have time to myself. Hustling was my name. Didn’t go to parties, travel or anything. Didn’t talk to friends.

What do you think hell is like?

Don’t go to the gym because it’s a fitness fad.

Become different not according to the world, but according to what you like and what you don’t.

Experiments: My life has been a group of experiments that failed to take off until I resorted to writing.

How can someone determine if their partner is in another romantic relationship, particularly if they do not live together?

Otherwise, thank you for reading. It was fun writing to you all. Hope it helped you in more ways than one.

Not because people show it off and you have to follow the lead.

I know being a writer is no different. But my journey is different. Its unique to me.

Why do liberals think same-sex marriage is alright? The Bible makes it very clear that it's not alright to be gay, why can't liberals understand that?

All of it would have been different, and this life would mean something, at least for him.

P.S. What’s your idea of being different? Do you have a different point of view?

Don’t drink because everybody does today.

Why are daughters mean to their mothers?

Don’t choose to be an engineer just because it pays well.

"Life is a journey, not a destination. Enjoy the ride." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Anxious to get a job, I chose to do what was socially recommended for me. So, I tried. Being a govt. servant. Failed. A Research Scholar. Didn’t make it. A Professor. Guess what?

I always yearned to go for government jobs because I had a few relatives already into it and doing well with money and security. And here is me, with an arts background, uncertain about what to choose.

What if he’d come outside?

A govt. job could do it for me. Plus Money, plus security, plus prestige.

Why would my ex block me after I blocked him?

I am an ordinary human being with the same body structure as you who are reading, you and I have the same material of what our bodies and brains are made up of.

Honestly, there’s nothing that makes ‘me’ different.

To take out these experiments, accept the asymmetry of your emotions, your eccentricities, aspirations and thoughts for what they actually are. Instead of filtering it through the social system, recognize the difference and apply it in your life.

What are some tips for a girl with low self-esteem to start dating?

Agree?

Long story short, here I am. Being a writer. Doing things I’d always love to do. Sharing my experiences of what I learnt.

Without experiments, is life worth it.

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” - Lao Tzu

Indeed, a number of other factors contribute to your uniqueness, but that’s for you to introspect.

C’mon, it’s an opportunity to break the rules, stand out and become ONE of a kind.

What is the worst emotional pain you ever felt as an adult?

"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." - Oscar Wilde

Do anything and everything because you like it. You love it. Do the things that make you go crazy. Things you’d barter your breath for. Things that make your life a rainbow.

So, keep on experimenting.

For those who were actually old enough to have experienced the 1970s and not for those who were born in the 70s. What were the pros and cons of that era?

Experiences: What has happened to me? Have I led a normal life with two parents and two siblings? Yes. Breakups I’ve had. Friends I’ve made. School I have attended. Guides I’ve met. Places I’ve been.

If you’ve read this far, let me tell you one more thing.

I have always wanted to write things. Wrote poetry during my grad and reluctantly left it for preparation of a govt. exam because who’s got extra time for it.

When did bestiality first occur to you and how did it happen the first time? Was it a deliberate decision or it just happened and you allowed it?

Being different is being a mess, yet being okay with it.

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

Don’t get a partner because you’re jealous of your friends.

If there is an abandoned house with no owner, can I live in it?

Being different is being okay with failure, so you know what the dessert of a win tastes like.

What makes you YOU.

Can you make it?

What made you feel disgusted today?

You know how all of this enlightenment came to me.

Yes, I was not at all happy.

He would have experienced the miracle called light. Maybe he got better food to eat. Then he got wounded. Then in search of balm, he travaled to the wilderness and found a party of rats, eaten to its heart’s content and danced the night out.

Everything has shaped me. Friends who gave me their pens and journals. Best friends I never made. Crush that made me write poems while he didn’t care. Romances I’ve missed. Opportunity to become an editor or a news correspondent I missed. I think all this has made me the writer I am.

Even if that means disappointing your parents and teachers for some time, but believe you’ll eventually make them feel proud.

So, what actually makes us all different?

I experimented. A lot. And now I know I don't need more trials of this kind. I’m writing this today at just the right place from the comfort of my home while it rains outside. While a cold breeze rings music to my senses.

Consider a rat who never came out of the hole fearing for his life. He stayed in the dark for years and died one day, unbeknownst.

Being different is being a weirdo. And being okay about it.

Not ignoring emotions because they can be destructive. Not underestimating your aspirations because society calls them second-rate.

You can be fearful and still use it to tame your weaknesses and build your emotional strength.
