Freak of Nature



I love these two images of an albino peacock. You see, I am different and I have always been different. I am gay, I am a big chubby man and I think differently than almost anyone I know. I look different, I talk different, I act different and I think different. In fact, I have often thought of myself as a freak of nature. Someone who does not quite fit, someone different, so different I stand out. But then I look at these pictures and I am reminded that even freaks of nature have their own unique beauty and their own place in the world. If I must be different, I hope that someone sees me as this peacock, definitely not the usual, but something that the world could use more of!
