For Thursday, March 21: You aren't that different

Everybody is identical in their secret unspoken belief that way deep down they are different from everyone else. David Foster Wallace

I think today's quote is interesting.  I think it is true and I find that interesting...and disturbing.  :)  Perhaps because we all grew up learning from loved ones that we are different from others.  But a funny thing has happened as we have grown up.  We have found out through life experience, maturity, interactions, etc that we aren't really all that different from others, right?  And what a disappointment, right?  Well we are going to have to get over it.  I know that's harsh but it's the reality. 
We aren't different from each other but we are all unique in our own ways.  Be okay with that.  Just because you aren't different doesn't mean you are not special.  Develop your unique qualities and accept that you are just like everyone else in other ways, you aren't that different.  Once you accept that the unique parts of you will shine.
