Difference
Too much time in silence.
Silence is a teacher.
You will never know if you speak without listening.
Isolation can be a gift. Non-copying another, being different,unique. Some people believe this, all which we call life, came from one organism, evolution, or a process in which something becomes different. We don't know the reason for this behavior. If this is true, your uniqueness can save us.
Some processes of evolution are just degradation. What about that? The answer is simple: having an organism evolve, degrade, or become something different is irrelevant because this organism cannot become its previous non-evolving one. Or in simple words, pretending not to be different and not pursuing difference will lead you to a wall, which will be the last thing you see until your last breath before you die. Sounds scary when we say it like this and makes us understand we need to be different.
Difference is an aspect you need to pursue. To do this requires courage and narcissistic belief in yourself or being a fool who doesn't think at all. Every aspect of these three is enough to pursue this, but it will be much more rewarding than you expect. Or you don't have another choice.
What does it mean to pursue difference?
Just being yourself, and believe me, I know how much this can sometimes be crazy. Our mind is a Luna Park, or if you have a mind like mine, it’s more like all the rivers in the world rushing so fast, and every drop of water is an idea, and every fish is a crazy thought. Behaving in the way you are will bring to you three types of criticizing people:
People who really love you and want you good: These are the ones who will sometimes try to explain why you are wrong. You have the option to listen and accept it or believe in yourself and pursue your idea. Pursuing the second option might lead to living with bad decisions, but they will be your decisions.
People who just don't understand you: They will only accept you doing something good when you get massive attraction and appreciation from other people in the world. Or, if you like to say it, when other people point out to them that you're doing something good. These people just live this way—for them, others make decisions.
People who are jealous: They are different but the last thing they see when they die is the wall. They don't have either one of the three types of characters needed to pursue being different, so they hate people who are different because it reminds them of what they could become if they just pursued their dreams.
Don't be afraid to watch yourself in the mirror. If you turn the mirror upside down, you will just see the wall.
