People can claim whatever they want, but no one has a monopoly on wisdom. What is wisdom? I think it's personal, or at least for me, it's the people who give me something to think about.
I too was born far too early, and I won't repeat what my mother said when her mother asked her if she was in labour. She probably just flushed me down the toilet. Instead, she let me starve. The consequences of that today? Perhaps the fact that to this day I can hardly digest food and therefore eat very little. I also feel quite displaced, so I'm always on my own, and I always have been. When everyone else was together, I would hide away in a corner, reading, of course. Computers didn't come along until much later, just like television, because the living room was meant for customers, not for the children.
I've been through a lot, and that's putting it mildly. It doesn't make me happy, but it does make me self-reliant, and then there's my pride, of course. Given the kind of family I have, I'd rather die on the street than have to knock on their door, and that has never happened, not even when I spent years in bed, virtually disabled. The only consolation is that if something happens to me today, I can say that I made it through before and I'm making it through now, and if I don't make it, that's fine too, we'll just pull the plug.
Idiots come from all walks of life and all ages. It's certainly not true that I'm getting wiser with age, as my grandmother used to say. Some people never learn and never want to learn anything new, let alone accept anything from anyone else. They don't learn from their life experiences either, but hey, it's their life and everyone has to live it the way they want to or make the best of it. It is nonsense to claim that everyone has the same opportunities, because that is certainly not the case. Nor is it true that you should be happy that you were born in a Western country, because when I look around me, I see that for many people this is certainly not an advantage, quite the contrary. That ridiculous statement is also completely wrong, and you will be opened up is nonsense, because no one opens the door when you knock. If your family still helps you, then at least you have that advantage over me. Although I would not accept any help from them either, because there is always a catch. Well, a catch... it's more like a constrictor snake.

Finally, I want to say this to you: it doesn't matter what others think of you, whether they think you're speaking in tongues or think you're crazy. As long as it makes sense to you, as long as you benefit from it, it is as it should be and you can consider yourself lucky.

I would call you special.
