The one reality we must all accept at the earliest is: There are all kinds of people in the world. And this is why, mankind will continue to be its own favorite mystery.
We may succeed in finding answers to everything -- almost. But human nature is one area which will eternally remain under the debris of wonder and inspiration. It will remain a wonder because of the indefinition. And inspiring because, the whole aura of the unknown is and will always push us to dig and question further. Sometimes, I reckon, questioning and curiosity are two abilities individuals must have. But mind you, do not mistake questioning as skepticism. That'd be a folly. The secret is to stay questioning. The quest is the most amazing part.
Personally, I find observing people to be a very healing exercise. I do that. A bit too much. And I think this characteristic of mine helps me never be lonely. I am a loner by choice, because the people inside my head are far intriguing and interesting. The people outside just interest me temporarily. Once the questions disappear, I move on.
This is funny. This is wickedly weird. In my defense, let me just say: I am wired to be weird.
I observe myself as painstakingly as I 'personalize' others. It's a habit that I just cannot let go. Of course my subjects are pre-picked based on several factors - but once chosen, I will go so far as peeling the skin of the toenail. Serious.
Traveling into peoples' lives is an addiction. Being a writer, and a onetime ardent student of psychology, baffling human life and behavior has always excited me. The fact that I am able to decipher the human mind - or not - always kicks me. The chase. I dislike finish-lines. They symbolize something I do not like: endings.
A lot of my acquaintances - not friends - (I do not have many, because I don't keep many) often hold me guilty of being a pretentious moron. They say I fake it - a lot. Truth is, I do not. Over the years I have consciously conditioned myself to think and believe differently. I think it's more like a natural graduation, not very many are willing to undertake or experience. The fact is, it requires an iron-will to stand on your own, amidst people who are constantly dogging you to become a slave of social systematic idiocy.
Bottomline: Not many people in my knowledge have the balls to accept, I am different. And broadly, that there are all kinds of people in the world.
If you cannot accept it, then just respect it.
Peace.
