" you're not special, but then again, maybe you are "

---

there are moments that are so beautiful, that i cannot help but respond with tears sometimes. the emotional chord has been struck, and i am powerless to its true note. there's something to be said about giving in, and being human.

i mean, do you realize that there are literally 2 chromosomes in the 2.5 billion or so genetic code sequences that separate us from chimpanzees? two!

take that little bit of information and claim it for your own benefit. exploit our unique ability to share and speak and communicate. chimpanzees don't even point to hint out a direction of interest. c'mon, take some pride in your pointer finger, 'cause it makes you special.

take a moment to realize that with all of the power you have in terms of cognitive thinking, the ability to audibly describe love, and convey, and share, you could say nothing but intelligent dazzling sentences all day? it's true. go ahead and give it a go, as there is nothing to lose.

outside your closed bubble of a life, there are an uncountable amount of miraculous things occurring, just outside your limited and localized frame of perspective. there are things that you don't understand and can still find very deeply moving and will render you in complete awe. let's go check em out.

go outside and take a moment please, for your own heart mind body and soul. it's time to be mature about this experience you're choosing to call your life, and begin to actually be interactive with it.

go.

go now, and show me what you've learned out there. i'll be there for you if you need me to.
