What makes you different?

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

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

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.

Why am I single?

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?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

Can you make it?

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

Agree?

Do you think a lot of sociopaths' parents kill themselves for having brought such disgusting evil into the world? How much shame and disgust must they carry?

So, keep on experimenting.

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

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

How can MeTV Toons compete with other national broadcast TV networks?

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.

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

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

Who is the king of Hollywood?

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

Yes, I was not at all happy.

You know how all of this enlightenment came to me.

Undercover cops in New York are riding the subways with iPods on to entice robbery. Is that a form of entrapment? If not, why not?

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.

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

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.

There is any scientific evidence that we live in a sphere. Why do others say that we lives in a flat Earth but there is no evidence that they have proven the existence of a flat earth?

What makes you YOU.

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.

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.

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

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.

How common is it for siblings to fight over their parents' inheritance money? What is the best way to handle this type of situation?

Don’t drink because everybody does today.

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

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.

So, what actually makes us all 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.

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

Do you think that drug addiction is a symptom of larger societal ills? What is it about our culture that leaves so many feeling like they're inadequate, trying any ill to find a cure?

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.

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

What are some things that children used to wait for, but are no longer common in today's society?

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

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

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.

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.

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.

What if he’d come outside?

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