Every single person is unique and that's what makes us great. It's good to stand out from the crowd.

Everyone is different and thats perfectly okay! The definition of 'normal' is different for everyone. Being comfortable and happy in yourself is what matters!

What is different? Different depends on what the norm is. So, what is normal? No one is exactly the same, so no one is "normal". We are all "different". We are unique, and can be whoever we want to be.

Human beings are very diverse!! We are all different in many ways, and at the same time, we are similar to each other in many ways. If you feel that you are very different from everyone else and that bothers you, then look around and find similarities between you and the people around you. I'm sure you will find a lot! But if you enjoy being different, then enjoy it! You deserve to be special.
