Some people were born to be different from the rest. But this does not rule out the theory that each of us are special in our own way. If you look around you, you'll find some people who stand tall amongst the rest. But this is usual, as normally people would notice these type of people vis-a-vis the tallest, prettiest and smartest. These are who I refer to as those who stand tall in a community. Whereas those who stand short, if any attention is given tends to get bullied.
Is there a possibility that the treatment of each respective classes could be reversed? For those who watch Ugly Betty, you find that her kindness does affect the perception of at least 1-2 people who benefit from them. They would probably give her the A-star treatment. But the rest, they seem to fall back on the idea that you should be gorgeous to work in a company that publishes fashion mags.
Taking on from this, our perception of people tends to be moulded from the culture of the company we work in. So is the solution from the those who stand tall/short is to work/ live in a place of its own heights in order to be treated normally? Pumpkin views this as an opportunity. In order for you to get far in life, you need to be given oustanding challenges. Best way is... be like Ugly Betty and stand out! The fact remains.... whether you stand short/tall will depend on how you see yourself. Think Positive!

What if staying positive isn't enough? What if despite our smiles and optimism, the culture that you must conform to be the tallest, prettiest and smartest still persist? Then what?
P.S. Welcome back, Pumpkin.
Then make a choice. If you conform, make sure you do so based on your own concious decision.
P/S: Thx
