i think i have a hard time respecting complete individuality. that is - it's so much easier to uniform personalities.

is there really such a thing as complete individuality? I mean isn't there always someone who is just what you are somewhere? Example - the Emo movement

how could you not respect something that is such an amazing wonder? I mean think about it, what if there was a clone of you. An exact genetic replica, but you grow up as you have and the clone lets say grows up in New York. How different the 2 of you would be. Or even better, a complete copy of this world, only in that world you had spaghetti for dinner lastnight, and here you had a salad. How would you feel today, how would they feel? Or maybe they took a right and you took a left. Who did they see or meet that you haven't and never will? The deeper individual properties of one's life are a great thing to admire. Everyone has experienced something different. Shit, you and I could sit down for a dinner in a resturant. Order the same food, but I bet my experience with the food, the resturant, and the conversations that would take place would be totally different than yours. How neat is that?

i do think it is quite amazing.. but my defenses put up a fight, at times, and insist on classifying people.
example :
let's say i have an experience with someone and it's horrible and then i experience a similar situation with someone else and before things could even progress further, i freak out, become convinced the other person is going to react or lead me down whatever horrible path the former person did..

... quite simply :
i neglect to realize that every situation is different because it's just as unique as the two people involved.. and people are not nearly as similar as one another as i tend to think they are.

& spaghetti sounds good! ;)
