What makes you different?

What makes you different?

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.

So, what actually makes us all different?

Without experiments, is life worth it.

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

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.

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.

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

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

Yes, I was not at all happy.

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

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

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

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

Agree?

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 snipers lay on top of tank turrets during combat?

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

So, keep on experimenting.

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 know how all of this enlightenment came to me.

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

What if he’d come outside?

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

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

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.

Can you make it?

I am skinny, I have been doing 100 pushups a day for more than a month and am seeing very few results, everything is so unfair, I workout more than anyone I know and am still skinny, why cant I build muscle?

Don’t drink because everybody does today.

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

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

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.

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

What makes you YOU.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.
