Thank you for sharing your perspective. :) It's beautiful, don't get me wrong, but it makes me feel uneasy for a different reason - you see, most of my relational problems come from the fact people are so afraid of acknowledging things like "uniqueness", "difference", "dissidence", "personal power", etc, that they treat me as an outcast who automatically - they assume - wants to harm them because surely if I'm not looking for belonging or for "seeing myself in them", I must be looking for trouble. *Sigh*

I must admit, I'm not entirely convinced you wouldn't join this judgemental choir if you met me in person.

But I'll acknowledge that you make a good point nonetheless, because perhaps I lack an understanding of this opposite perspective. Maybe I have more to learn about making people feel "like me" and that it doesn't necessarily take away my rights to be unique at the same time. :)
