Because TEMPLE's way of thinking is different from most people, she is regarded as a freak by others.
Fortunately, she has a mother who loves her.
Fortunately, in her life, she met her middle school teacher. Her teacher discovered that she was just "different from most people". She used image thinking Yes, so he used a class to let her understand that she can do it, not only can she do it, but she can even do it better than others.
Fortunately, her university teacher agreed with her experiment, said "EXCELLENT" to her, and gave her a good score.
She met a roommate who was like her and had a different way of thinking than most people (she used her voice thinking).
TEMPLE completed his master's degree in the United States, fought for the humane slaughter of cattle in the slaughterhouse, and became an excellent animal protection worker.
However, in China, TEMPLE can only be an idiot.
I am born to be useful. In fact, everyone's existence is of his value. If our society can give them full play to their strengths, the world will become more ideal.
It's just that most people with "defects" choose to be like most people, hoping to get their approval, and in order to get these approvals, to endure a lot of ridicule.
It’s just that this society is only for the majority of people to consider. In fact, the feelings of a few people need more attention. For example, some public social services, blind humanity, you go to see the blind humanity, find any one to try, and see where it ends up? Hit a telephone pole? I recently went to the School of Architecture of Shenzhen University to listen to Zhou Chuanji's class. As a result, I saw that the building has almost no edges on all sides. It is a public facility. Why not consider it for the few people who are afraid of space?
I hope our society can learn to be more and more tolerant, tolerant of people who are different from most people, and respect them.
Finally, I want to say, YOU ARE DIFFERENT, BUT NOT LESS.
