But you're *different,* Wim. <winks, read on, dear Wim>

<rant warning>

I read some of that (don't think it's appropriate to talk about but
there are enough members of this list that are probably on both that
it's slightly relevant)...For the record, IMO what happened over there
was just wrong.

Reminded me of some recent news and past stories (my own) about
acceptance of differences.

Most recent, a private school student was given an art assignment, as
was the rest of her class, to do a self-portrait.

She did hers, and was then told that she would be differently graded
(and not a higher grade for artistic originality) than the rest of her
class, because her self portrait 'wasn't like the other kids' self portraits'.

?:-0?

?!?!?!?!

What's up with this? We humans have to sort ourselves like beans into
little compartments where we fit, then kick the oddly shaped beans or
differently-abled beans out of the compartments and condemn them and
call them "too sensitive" if they don't like being kicked? Try to say
there's something wrong with the beans that get upset about being booted?

Bullshit.

...and from the past...

I was always a "different" kid myself, so this all resonates deeply
within me. It's tough when you're victimized for being different, and
when you yell about it you get told you'd be better off shutting up and
taking some medicine to make you feel all better (i.e. like the rest of
them). <take an *aspirin?* ...TAKE an ASPIRIN?!!!?> What's up with that.

And if you say it's *good* to be different, well...then they *really*
get upset. Shakes up their little secure sheepworld and they kick you
out even faster.

<no, I don't have any remaining bitterness here! LOL>

Anybody need a socially-acceptable mask? (seriously though, I don't
think I can design one that will make we *different* types fit in
properly. )

<LOL...or should it be tears...[shrugs]>

B*B...Kath
