Okay. So what interesting thoughts have you had?

@Kropotkin That’s quite vague… I have a lot of ideas about the world, so it’s difficult to pick out one without having a topic to go off of.

Some people live their lives externally others spend more time inside their own heads. You seem to be one of the latter. I tend to be the same way myself.

I agree with @uberbatman. you can’t expect everyone to share the same methods or keep the same habits of thinking that you do. For example, consider some things you know others are better at than you. Perhaps, for example, keeping extremely fit and eating extremely consciously and healthy. Or perhaps keeping one’s temper and remaining calm in times of stress. Or perhaps the ability to choose or create long lasting friends. Or the ability to persuade others with seemingly little effort. Everyone has different skills and these skills are really always the product of their thinking habits and methods.

No two people are exactly alike and that’s okay. Maybe your skill is dreaming and thinking on deep matters. Others may not have that talent but they have other talents that are just as valuable.

So, that’s my answer to your question: Yes. It’s special to think as much as you do. Keep at it. You may not have anyone around you who thinks exactly like you do now, but you’re certainly allowed to keep searching for them. Just make sure you appreciate everyone for their differences while you wait. Also, continue to find meaningful/fun ways to share your talent with others who rightfully aren’t quite like you, that’s diversity.

Do you have teensy weensy super uber tiny micro unicorns inside your brain?

I do.

No, it is not ‘strange’, although it may be uncommon; welcome to the club. Like all human traits, there are the vast majority of folks in the middle of the bell curve, and then there are those at the ends of the spectrum. It is typically people who are more introverted that also are more prone to deep contemplation, but there are exceptions to every rule.

Amongst the superficial chatter about celebrities and clothing styles, a profound statement or observation is far outside the norm. The key is finding others who also think deeply, and while they may not agree with your ideas, will at least appreciate the process and personality behind them. Stay true to yourself.

Finding people who spend any time thinking about things that are not pragmatic is hard. Many may have done so on occasion, but unlike me, they got board with it. Perhaps @BBawlight and I are outliers. Other Fluthers are as well.

Yeah, it’s difficult to find a person you can actually talk to instead of spouting cheeseball lines like “So how’s the weather?”

There are people who have a very hard time just surviving lifes problems.
Then there are people who have food, clothing ,shelter and secure in there lives, who then have the time to ‘think” on thingswith a more broader perspective .
That is why seniors in their later years reflect on their lives and life in general more.
