What makes you different?

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

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.

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.

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.

Yes, I was not at all happy.

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

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.

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.

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

Can you make it?

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 weirdo. And being okay about it.

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

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

Don’t drink because everybody does today.

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

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