Diversity is the spice of life! We are all unique in our own ways. It's a good thing to be appreciative of your differences and even better that it is a source of happiness for you.

Well, everyone is different truly. Many just are better at conforming. And I think anyone who knows them-self and accepts who they are can be happy. Often to truly know oneself, you have to accept that you're entirely unique.

Like you are content with your life and other peoples business not bother you? Sure that's natural. It's very positive. People getting us down is the unnatural thing.

Yes,it is.I would class myself as being different from the usual flock of white sheep and I'm pleased for it.I have 2 conditions.One which is embarrassing and the other which is classed by others as 'Freaky'.I'm overweight and the Goth way chose me 8 years ago.Though I don't like having one condition,I embrace both.Hug your own individuality,it's what makes you who you are,you don't come from the same cookie mold,you're freestyle! :D

I believe being different is a beautiful thing, it makes you who you are and places you apart others

Happiness is by-product of living a rich, full and meaningful life. Life that is living out of your own personal values are the key for achieving such a life. Look into your values: is it Accepting, Loving,... or Respect, Justice, Supportive,... or Responsible, Industry... look into your personal values, get an assessment. Values are compasses in your lives, that pointing to your goals you want to achieve. Happiness is absolutely different to everyone, depends on if you are living out your values.

I don't know if this is natural, but it's great! It's good to appreciate our differences. Life would be boring if we were all the same. If being different means being yourself and be happy, then please be! It's what's important.

For me it is, It meant that you embrace who you are. you know your capabilities, your limits and your life goals. Sure affirmation from others feels good but to affirm yourself that you are ( I wont say different) unique from others means embracing your identity.

I think so. I feel that there is greatness and uniqueness in everyone. It is when we try to be like someone else, and take away from their uniqueness, that we lose our happiness.

We are all different but not always happy about being different. We invest a lot of energy to be what we perceive as "like everyone else," so there is nothing wrong with being happily different i.e being yourself.
