Different than what?  To say whether one is different on must first define
what the norm is - if norm is human - than different would be animal. By the
standards by which we decide normal - I have always been the standard
deviation - immigrant/foreign/ then Naturalized, IQ in upper less than 1%,
single Mom who owns a house, Pagan in majorly Christian country, I am highly
individual in a society that values comformity, loner in soctiety that
demands you belong to a group so you have an indentity they can grasp.
Therefore I am very much different - I however perceive all people to be
individuals therefore for me there is no different.
