Do you notice how much I change?

You've said people are different, yet according to what and according to whom
Considering there's no structured consensus on the same

Different from one another, how so, it's not like oneself
defines the majority of human characteristics

It seems like an easy way out to an internal dilemma within
For if we accepted people the way they were, we would see
that it is not they who are different, or me, but instead, what they love to do
that makes them so 'different.' For example, somebody creating music, that makes them different,
not as a person, but rather the footprint they leave behind, with concerns to the energy
they picked up as an individual, resulting in their own original pieces.

I still believe we're all basically the same, in terms of our human experiences,
our strengths, our weaknesses, and our desire to be happy. Perhaps it is the details
which differ, or our approach, which could be connected to the soul, mind, body, experiences, patterns, and nurturing environment and people.

If I met you today, after say 3 years, and said you were different. It wouldn't make sense, for I'd be comparing you to me? And why the need for comparison, it only halves your self and mine.

Yet if I said, hey you've changed, as a normal individual, I probably would have realized your weight, your hair, your height maybe?!? Yet what about the real changes, the ones you probably would have subconsciously and consciously made, due to life experiences. I mean 3 years, they're a grand amount of learning experiences, and individual choices.

I like change, especially inner changes, they reflect on outer changes. I like growth, and I like seeing people grow around me as much I love to bloom regardless of the tosses and turns life presents, on this beautiful journey which is once upon a time, since it might be lived consequently by your soul many times, but only once by you, body, mind and spirit.

So when we meet again, and I say, you've changed. Let me know what you experienced, for it will brighten up my day.
