What makes you different?

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

So, keep on experimenting.

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

Why are patients' mouths taped shut during surgery? Is this a common practice in all hospitals or only some? What is the purpose of this practice?

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

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.

Trump is going to target known criminals in the country illegally for deportation. The Democrats have vowed to fight him every step of the way. Don't they understand this is one of the issues that cost them the white house, the house and senate?

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

Is using an ambulance really free in countries with universal healthcare, or are there hidden costs like deductibles that people should know about?

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.

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.

I see ugly guys dating gorgeous, "hot" women all the time. I, too, am not very attractive but I'm not doing well with the ladies. What's their secret?

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

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.

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

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

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

The New Twist In Regeneron's 23andMe Bankruptcy Buyout - Investor's Business Daily

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.

Without experiments, is life worth it.

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

Yes, I was not at all happy.

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.

What makes you YOU.

What is the gayest experience you have seen in prison?

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

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.

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.

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

Don’t drink because everybody does today.

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

You know how all of this enlightenment came to me.

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

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

Agree?

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

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.

Can you make it?

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

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

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.

So, what actually makes us all different?

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.

What if he’d come outside?
