This was a great read. I agree with you when you said that “Otherness” should be viewed as normal. I am convinced, more people share the same feelings, but they are afraid to show their real faces.”

We are all human with the same emotions but most people don’t want to admit it. It’s far easier to make others feel different or less than.

As I’ve grown older, I’ve learned to accept my difference. I gravitate towards those that are like-minds and I learn to be okay with my own company.

Not everyone will get or understand you, be yourself regardless.
