What makes you different?

Can you make it?

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.

Agree?

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

How do I write a character’s physical description without it feeling unnatural and clunky? I’m able to describe their hair and body relatively easily because my writing puts emphasis on small movements and fidgeting, but I can’t describe faces.

What if he’d come outside?

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

If I only have a fire extinguisher to defend myself against some threat from people, should I spray them for max damage or just hit them with the fire extinguishers?

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?

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

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

Why do people keep saying they have evidence and have presented it that proves you're wrong even though they have none and haven't presented anything? Furthermore, what do they think you're wrong about?

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

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

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

Why do some young mothers trick a guy into believing that they're pregnant and it's their child when years later they find out that it's not even theirs should he still pay child support or not?

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

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

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.

What were the first few days, weeks, months and then years like after finding out about your spouses infidelity? How did your feelings, and yours & their approach to the situation change in the immediate aftermath compared to later down the line?

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.

So, what actually makes us all different?

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.

New COVID variant swiftly gains ground in US; concern looms for summer wave - Ars Technica

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.

So, keep on experimenting.

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

How do I get fit at home?

Yes, I was not at all happy.

Without experiments, is life worth it.

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

Why do I get bored with porn so quickly? I can watch maybe half a video (5 mins max) and then get bored and do something else. I don't watch porn often, just a teenager. 17.

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

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

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.

Why are most people broke?

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.

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.

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

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

You know how all of this enlightenment came to me.

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

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

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

What makes you YOU.

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