Nobody Knows

“If you think you’re one in a million, there are eight of you in New York.”
The Chemical Buddha realized we were all unique. We all have a combination of special talents, skills and personality quirks that are unlike anyone else’s. Although it seemed to him some people tried to purposely stake out ground that made them unlike anyone else. But to him, it stood to reason that with all of the people on the planet there wasn’t anyone who had something that was so unique that absolutely no one else had it. And he was determined to find those people who mixed sex, drugs, and overeating as a spiritual path and mold them into his ‘army of awakened ones.’ Because, while lots of people liked the allure of excess to enlightenment, few of them could actually undergo the rigorous training. Believe it or not, partying until 4 am and sleeping until 2 in the afternoon wasn’t as easy as it looked. But then, you probably wouldn’t understand that because if you did, you would already know that and would have no need to read this.
What do you think makes you unique?
Where in your life do you feel that no one else would understand your life? How does that keep you isolated, alone and wallowing in your own problems? Do you truly believe no one understands or is that just what you tell yourself.
