It's the differences in people that help you realize who you are. Even if we silently pass each other on the street.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I see that people now recognize me in the street. But it doesn't change me in the depth of my being.
People are more likely to pass me on the street without recognizing me, and that's good.
If you don't acknowledge differences, it's as bad as stereotyping or reducing someone.
At the end of the day, people have to respect people's differences. I am different than some people would like me to be.
If you feel alienated from people around you, it's because no one tries to understand you.
People have more dimensions to them than we give them credit for. The person you meet on the street that you think is someone, and it's someone else. I'm mistaken for someone else all the time.
You learn more about a person from the people around that person than you do from the person themselves. We all have our own ideas of who we are that may or may not be justified, and you can really find out a heck of a lot more accurately from the people around an individual.
Like, people recognizing me on the street never interested me.
People want other people to know that they share our sensibility even if they're not exactly sure what that sensibility is.
It makes you realise that people are the same wherever you go.
