Some people look for something unique-different-rare-special-weird things to feel a part of something special and different, as form of feeding their egos.
The down point of this, is that the person may be so focus on liking unique-different-special-weird that they become blind whether it is wholesome or unwholesome. A smart person would prioritize the true value of wholesomeness and true bliss and happiness over anything that is just because it is unique-different-special-rare-weird. Just like how rare it is to find a thug with a gun in the middle of the street, you should be getting out of there because it's nothing good.
Don't trade clarity, appreciation of simplicity and wholesomeness for the sake of just unique-different=rare-special-weird. Only fools do that. Keep the mind clear and see the true value of things as it is. That is smart.
I don't think you can talk about unique-different-special-weird all together.
ReplyDeleteThey are 4 utterly ' different' words.
Unique is being the only one of its kind. a thing that may be only for me.
Special is things or a person different from is usual. Can be good or bad
Different is another level. like a toothbrush is different from a teddy bear. Not necessary good or bad...
but Weird is kind of supernatural. Strange like a mysterious. its odd...
So I have to talk about them separately.
Unique things to me - I like, or I love. So it does not matter if its good or bad.
special things - depends. I may only appreciate their existance.
different things - things are different the ways they, so let them be.
Weird things are fun. I would love to know why so weird. But well, you cannot like something when you do not know how they act.
In conclude, I don't think you can sum up a person by only knowing that they like unique-different-rare-special-weird things. Sometimes, people just have their own no reason to like something. its an act or a feeling...maybe they can't physically or psychologically pull themselve out of it. But that is not necessary bad for them. This is just what human mind do to them. it's weird :)
You misread the blog.. it is said "as a form to feed their egos". These elements are not bad, but if it use to feed the ego, it is unhealthy.
ReplyDeleteEven trying to do good to be famous to feed their egos can be unhealthy.
