The Non-Conformist

When I say non-conformist, to some, it has a negative connotation, to others it is a way to embrace their individual uniqueness, to me it is knowing that my Don Quixote nature is just who I am.  Championing causes, rescuing those that need help, being of service, and not being afraid of my emotions is not necessarily a unique trait, but somehow, this combination of macho and nurturing does seem to be at odds with the socialized norm. 

Even as a child I was "different", and that sense of being different runs true to this day. Is my feeling of difference literal or is it subjective?  Big question this early in the morning, have some coffee and think about it from your point of view.  Being different does not equate to being on the fringe of society, nor does it inherently allow you to force people to accept your oddities. 

What I'm really trying to you is this; "You are you and I like that."  You should like you too!  You are a marvelous creature destined for greatness.
