What makes you different?
Last Updated: 19.06.2025 06:52
Take my word. You won’t regret it.
Don’t go to the gym because it’s a fitness fad.
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.
Do you like wearing short skirts?
C’mon, it’s an opportunity to break the rules, stand out and become ONE of a kind.
Indeed, a number of other factors contribute to your uniqueness, but that’s for you to introspect.
Don’t get a partner because you’re jealous of your friends.
What blowjob techniques do you use for your man to cum inside your mouth?
Not ignoring emotions because they can be destructive. Not underestimating your aspirations because society calls them second-rate.
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.
If you’ve read this far, let me tell you one more thing.
My blog is new. I need 10 article posts for my blog. How much should I pay 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.
Yes, I was not at all happy.
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.
What legal actions can be taken if a neighbor's unleashed dog causes harm or injury?
So, keep on experimenting.
Don’t choose to be an engineer just because it pays well.

How do I explain to my husband that my 19-year-old son has accidentally gotten me pregnant?
A govt. job could do it for me. Plus Money, plus security, plus prestige.
Don’t drink because everybody does today.
Long story short, here I am. Being a writer. Doing things I’d always love to do. Sharing my experiences of what I learnt.
Why do Indian parents force their kids to do stuff?
I know being a writer is no different. But my journey is different. Its unique to me.
Not because people show it off and you have to follow the lead.
P.S. What’s your idea of being different? Do you have a different point of view?
Why do companies cull employees during financial downturns without saying so?
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.
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.
You know how all of this enlightenment came to me.
So, what actually makes us all 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?
"Life is a journey, not a destination. Enjoy the ride." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
What 10 things have you stopped doing in your life?
Without experiments, is life worth it.
What makes you YOU.
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.
All of it would have been different, and this life would mean something, at least for him.
Being different is being okay with failure, so you know what the dessert of a win tastes like.
Honestly, there’s nothing that makes ‘me’ different.
What does it mean if someone asks if it’s pink?
Experiments: My life has been a group of experiments that failed to take off until I resorted to writing.
Being different is being a weirdo. And being okay about it.
Become different not according to the world, but according to what you like and what you don’t.

Agree?
You can be fearful and still use it to tame your weaknesses and build your emotional strength.
Otherwise, thank you for reading. It was fun writing to you all. Hope it helped you in more ways than one.

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.
Even if that means disappointing your parents and teachers for some time, but believe you’ll eventually make them feel proud.
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.
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.
What thing happened to you as a child that you haven’t let go of to this day?
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.
What if he’d come outside?
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.
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.
