Today’s post is all about celebrating outliers, those of us who are not the norm. I say “us” because I often find myself part of the minority or even the fringe minority.

Being different is difficult, especially when we were children and other kids picked on different. But different is often a good thing. Many (most?) of the world’s most important discoveries and inventions came from outliers. Likewise for great literature, music, and art.

For me, the real issue ties back to what I said on Monday about being who God made you to be. If He made you unusual in some way, or ways, then that is who He wants you to be. Being anyone else is falling short of the life He’s called you to!

So celebrate your differences. And celebrate the differences of your family and friends too. Let them know you’re happy for them to be who God intended them to be.

~ Paul – I’m XY, and I’m an outlier!
