If your "normal" what do you have to look forward to? Then you're just one of the humans on the planet. But, if you're different, you stand out. No one can take that away from you. Even if you're suffering, don't for one second believe that being "normal" would be any better. You would still suffer, maybe not in the same way, but at least with being different, you can get away with it. No one can blame you, and no ne can judge you.
~ I am not different FROM you, I am different LIKE you.
