Sheep

"God only watches us and kills us when we get boring. We must never ever be boring."

- Invisible Monsters, Chuck Palahnuik circa 1999

It feels like everyone is trying to stand outside the circle. Everyone wants to be the black sheep, the wolf, or some other clever comparisson. Everyone wants to be different. But when everyone wants to be different, aren't we all just being the same? If everyone strives so hard for uninqueness, how can we tell what's unique anymore? True individuality isn't something you need to bend over backwards to achieve. To be honest, you don't need to do anything at all. Close your eyes, take a deep breath, clear your mind. That's the beauty of life, the glory of humanity. We are all different. From the moment we are born we're an individual soul. A separate spirit. A one-of-a-kind living breathing piece of art. It's when we loose sight of this fact that we become dull. When we try too hard to be something that we aren't. It may seem like the thing you desire most, to be someone else. But what's so bad about being you? Be happy with yourself and know that there will never be anyone quite like you. Your smile, your voice, the way you move, the things you feel, they are all yours and only yours. No one can touch that, no one else will ever have these things. Love yourself, you're beautiful. You are truly unique.
