But the connotation of weird is not being used here in a positive way and weird is not the same as unique.
There is nothing wrong with being different from the ordinary. Our society labels people who dares to be different as weird, strange and eccentric and it needs to stop.
The fact of the matter is not one person is EXACTLY the same. We may go through similar experiences but we all are uniquely created. We all look at life differently.
Most people choose to act like everyone else in fear of being judged because there are consequences for being an individual.
Just because he was different from YOU does not mean he was "weird".
Its a very judgmental term. We all define normal differently.
