What makes you different?

What makes you different?

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.

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.

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

So, what actually makes us all different?

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.

So, keep on experimenting.

"Life is a journey, not a destination. Enjoy the ride." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

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.

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

What do you think about Matt Gatz as an attorney general?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Why do men think all women are the same?

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

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

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

Which type of physical cable has fastest transmission speed?

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.

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

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

Will you share your wife? Can she take both of us at the same time?

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

Take my word. You won’t regret 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?

Why is there so much free porn on the internet?

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

Don’t drink because everybody does today.

What if he’d come outside?

Why aren't U.S. prisons more like Marine Corps boot camp, were every second of the day there are mandatory activities so that at night everyone is so tired they go to sleep until wakeup at 5:30 am? Would this make prisons safer for all?

Without experiments, is life worth it.

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

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

Why do people procrastinate and how can they stop?

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.

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

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

Two of my family members have recently converted to Islam and have brought shame on my family. How do I get them back into the fold of Hinduism?

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

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

Agree?

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.

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

Atheists who said that reading the Bible made them an atheist, how? Literally there are millions of people who read the Bible daily and still believe in God. So why say that? I mean unless you want to sound smart & edgy

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

What is the best case of “You just picked a fight with the wrong person” that you've witnessed?

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

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.

Yes, I was not at all happy.

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

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

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.

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

What makes you YOU.
