Be different

One things is for certain - this toucan is different. And the way they looked at me - they know. Maybe they are even spud of the fact.

For a lot of us, being different is a struggle, or rather, society typically rewards assimilation instead of standing out.

The thing is: change requires some differences. Maybe not even outward or being clearly visible. But the whole definition of changing something is - according to the Merriam Webster dictionary “to cause to be different”.

That can certainly be large, or small, or anything in between.

So - embrace to be different in the way you desire. And while you’re practicing - don’t hesitate to ogle yourself in a mirror as this toucan did with my camera lens.
