Differences

Differences are a beautiful thing.

It might've been the fact that I spent a week with people so very different from me. I was surrounded from Monday-Friday, 8am-3pm with people who are living different lifestyles and making different decisions each having different characteristics. Different strengths. Different weaknesses.

I like differences. Vast differences...small ones. Insignificant changes and significant life altering ones. 

Difference : n) a point or way in which people or things are not the same.

v) alter (a coat of arms) to distinguish members or branches of a family.

A difference makes you you, distinguishes you from "the norm" and is a unique attribute that only you posses in the amount that has been bestowed on you. 

Worn / fresh + weathered / new 

You can choose to be uncomfortable with your differences or you can choose to accept them...and in actuality, your differences cannot be altered. Differences set an object apart and make that being singular. Unique. Totally and completely their own. Doesn't it sound wonderful? To be totally and completely your own? Like no one else?

Differences in textures, personalities, clothing, colours, you name it - each and every difference is beautiful.
