eccentricity 101
we observe and mimic others to learn the ways of our
people. we learn to conform to mold and transform
ourselves for we notice young the fears people have of
difference and how they treat the different.
even so, a few daring teens break free of the mold playing a
balancing act on the edge of conformity with some extreme.
we all pass the borders of age into adulthood. a majority
continue following conformed playing the roles that walk
the mainstream, the societal pieces.
a few ride a personal wave of freedom and adventure
while dancing to their own eccentric beats.
many fall somewhere in-between and of these some are
eccentrics beginning to bloom learning to live from their
passions. the different labeled the odd, unusual, and freaky.
some eccentrics live on the societal outskirts, happy
others learn to walk both worlds, playing the game.
without either, our world would not be the same
for the eccentric are often the inventors and the dreamers
the ones who bring change.
