Difference: Wandering Thought #240
It would be foolish to be different just for the sake of being different, perhaps merely for attracting attention, to assert the ego? But it would be foolish not to be different at all too. It would be living indifferent lives, that hardly matter in and beyond themselves.
How should we be different then? In ways that truly make differences – for the better, by bettering ourselves, and bettering the lives of others. The challenge is when there are different views of how to better the world. Hear and analyse all opinions, and conceive of the kindest and wisest options for appropriate actions. So what if they require very different means? They could be key to making real differences!
