People are often described as different based on physical attributes, but I just got to thinking, at 3:something AM, about one of the things I would like to call a difference between me, and most other people. In my opinion.
I think the difference between me, and most other people, is when I go to a movie with my friends, and they like it, I think I'm allowed to dislike it, and feel okay for it.
I think the difference between me, and most other people, is when I like a musician, and that musician performs, I try to understand the song, for what it's trying to be, and what it's trying to say - even if it is trying to be a joke.
I think the difference between me, and most other people, is when I like a person, I try to get to know that person to discover why I like them, and what about them I like, instead of trying to simply get closer to cling harder.
I think the difference between me, and most other people, is that what I believe, I believe it because I think it makes sense, not because someone told me it's supposed to make sense.
I think the difference between me, and most other people, is that I think.
Do you think too?

Oh, Denith! I knew there was a reason I liked you from the start! I love people who can think. Not only think, but think for themselves. Such a rare quality these days.
As much as it may sometimes drive you crazy and make your life miserable to feel like you're the only one who thinks things through and gives any consideration to what they're doing in life, keep to the path of thoughtfulness and contemplation. It can be rough, but is the only true pathway to a better life.
You're too intelligent and too reasoned to be swayed by popular opinion. It is people who do not sway, but keep to the foundation of an observant and open understanding of the world around them, who make true progress in and for this world.
Keep to the englightened path, brother. You'll find there are others walking the same direction.
