I'm a unique guy.

I'm a unique guy. Different. And I've always wanted to be different. Didn't have to be like other people. All right to be a misfit. Didn't necessarily need friends. Albeit, I welcome friends. I'm shy. But not shy. In that I'm not afraid to walk naked in the world, so to speak. To reveal what's on my mind. And in my heart. That's why I'm a writer. Nothing can stop me from finding and using words. In meaningful ways. I'm good at writing love letters. Like to write at least one a day. And I have my own style of writing. I just let it flow. Naturally. In spurts. Generally, I avoid long sentences. And often I squash it all together. In a single paragraph. I break the rules. Of grammar. Of decorum. Of almost anything. I rub some people the wrong way. Especially the ones that object to me being unique. They want me to be more like other people. I like other unique people. A one of a kind. They are my favorites. As for my friends. I don't wanna change any of 'em. I like 'em just as they are. Even the ones that might make an attempt to change me. See, I accept friends unconditionally. They could wrong me, and they'd still be a friend. Like I said from the outset. I'm a unique guy. --Jim Broede
