Letting go |
To be an eccentric is not to be nuts or weird. Well I don't think that it is, anyway. But it is about letting go of something that 'normal' people hold tightly onto. Maybe many things.
One thing to let go is the terrible tension of worrying too much about what others think about you. You can still be social and civil (and I do hold these dear) but just don't fret so much about how others might judge you. In truth, we think others think more about us than they actually do (in fact they're often more worried about what we think about them).
You can also let go of some of the rules, the first of which is 'I must follow all the rules, even if they are rather daft'. In fact, being eccentric is perhaps about being just a bit more sane.
So give yourself permission. Let go of a few of the ties that bind you. Be free. Be eccentric.
