What makes you 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?

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.

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.

Can you make 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.

Without experiments, is life worth it.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

Why do so many people suddenly think it's acceptable to continue to live with their parents into adulthood?

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

Don’t drink because everybody does today.

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

Take my word. You won’t regret it.

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

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

So, keep on experimenting.

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.

Agree?

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

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?

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.

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

So, what actually makes us all different?

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

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.

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

Can Donald Trump use the Alien Friends Act of 1798 to give ALL illegal immigrants an ultimatum: You have 1 month to leave America, after which you will be arrested and jailed for 3 years?

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

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

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

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

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

You know how all of this enlightenment came to me.

What makes you YOU.

Yes, I was not at all happy.

So I’m getting piano lessons and my teacher wants me to get an upright piano instead of a keyboard. An upright piano is way above my price range, so what do I do? And what’s the difference between an upright piano and a keyboard?

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

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

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

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