I admire Adam Young who is OWL City. I think to myself 'how does he see the world?' and I try so hard to see it differently than anyone else, maybe how he see's it, maybe not. But when I pose the question how do I see the world? I realize it boils down to how I want to see it, and whether or not I'm willing to give in to the darkest places that lonely thoughts can take me. To see the world in a way that no one else does requires everything, and it requires nothing. Being an individual we already see the world differently then anyone else..but can often be pulled into the mainstream ideals of general society. Seeing the world differently doesn't require that we're happy all the time and see wonderful things everywhere, it's okay to be sad, and to see that there is pain, because someone who see's the world differently doesn't ignore pain. They realize that to overcome it, and to live with it, it has to be recognized, it has to be seen, once you've recognized pain through personal experience, you begin to see that it's everywhere, in almost everyone whether they realize it or not, and once you see this, you see the world differently. You see a world that is ready for help at every turn, and as you empathize, and sympathize with others in a way that uplifts them, and in a way that helps them to start seeing differently, this is when you realize happiness however brief or long, is achievable. And then the world is new, bright, colorful, and different around every turn. See the world differently.
