It's OK to be different

What if everyone in the world was exactly alike? What if everyone talked the same, acted the same, listened to the same music and watched the same TV programs? The world would be extremely dull!
I believe it's important to accept people for who they are.
Differences are important and they should be respected. For example, many important people throughout history were considered different, such as Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Harriet Tubman, Peter Tchaikovsky and Abraham Lincoln. They did great things, but some people thought they were weird because they had strong feelings about something. I can relate to these people because I've been in that situation before, many times. Sometimes I wish I were like everyone else, but not really. Because I believe people should be respected for being different because we're all different in our own ways. I also believe in accepting and loving your family and friends just as they are and for who they are and be grateful that they are also different. This is something I am working on everyday. This I believe.
