X-Men

In the course of our daily lives, we will often come across 'unique' individuals with their own ways of doing things. They could be someone you've known all your lives e.g. your siblings, parents, aunties and uncles or perhaps just business associates or friends that you come across in your day-to-day dealings.

Personally, I feel each and everyone of us are unique in our own ways. However,there are 2 key points which may make certain ones exceptional: -
1. When the uniqueness run counter with the general way other people normally do it
2. When the uniqueness is something nobody else can do

Which takes me to my next question, what happens next? If you are family members of the unique individual, it won't be much of an issue. Not even if you are friends, as true friends should always accept you for who you are. I suppose, it could become an issue if you fall in love with one.

But before we dwell into that, let me start with this. This morning, when I went to pick up my car at the workshop which is about 15-20 kms away from home... I told my parents that I would take a cab. But when I walked out of my house, it just occurred to me that normally, I would walk to the workshop as I usually send my car for fixing during the weekends. The thing is, I really enjoy the walks I take as it gives me a chance to walk pass the houses of all the people I know and the schools I use to go to. And, strangely enough,I decided to put on my shades, with my court shoes and office suit (minus the jacket) and walk to the workshop. Then it just hit me... I am an X-men (for avoidance of doubt, I am however not a mutant though haha) as no one else would really want to do this. In fact, I was not even embarrassed when the passers by saw me.

Personally, I don't think anyone can appreciate someone who is exceptionally unique, unless they themselves are exceptionally unique. What an exceptionally unique relationship that could become! So, it's not really true when they say exceptionally unique individuals would be lonesome, as each of us would have had our match made in heaven. The final question then would be whether you have met the person at a time when your uniqueness could be more appreciated. Hmmm....(pondering)
