ndividual characteristics make each human being unique. Siblings or twins may look very similar, but each one has individual characteristics or differences that make them unique and unrepeatable in relation to their sibling. According to scientific studies, fingerprints are unique and identify us; no one has the same fingerprint or pattern. Recently, I watched a documentary with my son about zebras, and according to the narrator, no two zebras have the same stripe pattern. Although they may look similar at first glance, each one has its own particularities. In the case of human beings, we may look physically similar, but we are unique. On several occasions, I have mentioned that I am tall, and although during my childhood and adolescence it was somewhat difficult to find clothes because I was also thin, the ones that fit my height were too short for me and vice versa. Nowadays, it is easier to buy clothes; they come in all sizes. Besides, my height was never a problem because I felt comfortable and blessed to be tall.
This week I went to run an errand at the bank. To my surprise, the customer service offices are on the upper floor. I had never been to this part of the bank before because they used to be on the ground floor. Another surprise was that when I was going up the stairs, I had to duck my head a little because I almost hit the ceiling. The ceiling is very low. compared to the other areas of the bank. The people who were there turned to look at me. In fact, I saw one person signal to another, and she turned around without hiding it and stared at me. I thought she was scanning me, heh heh. At first, it didn't bother me; I thought it was funny, but while I was standing there for about three minutes, I saw how all eyes were focused on me. which made me very uncomfortable, because they were talking and gesturing, indicating that I was almost touching the ceiling.
As there were several people in line, I calculated that I would have to wait at least 10 minutes and decided to move forward to the benches and sat down, people continued making gestures and talking, I really felt very uncomfortable, it even crossed my mind to leave, but I was already there; it's the first time that because of my height I feel like a weirdo and strange for not fitting in this space, while I waited, my mind processed all the possible information and I thought either I'm very tall, or the ceiling is very low, then I kept looking at other people who weren't as tall as me and my conclusion or maybe as a consolation prize was that the ceiling was very low, several minutes passed and I was focused on my thoughts analyzing the situation of the ceiling and my height, I am very tall and I didn't notice it, when my turn to go to the ticket office approached, a man taller than me came in, who when he reached the last step hit his head on the ceiling and smiling, he quickly went to the bank, sat down to wait and asked me if I was the last one in line, I told him no, there were two people in front of me, smiling he said; _ ah! we're here for the same thing.
This place is not appropriate, it is too small for us, elegance does not go with small spaces, it is linked to wide and opulent spaces, he made me smile and I said, it is true, it is all a matter of height, it is not that I am very tall, it is just that the space does not go according to my height, this phrase made me feel happy and completely changed my countenance, when my turn came I said goodbye to the gentleman and thanked him for talking to me for a moment and for saying this phrase that made me come out of my emotional shock; After being served at the ticket office I left very relaxed and went down the stairs without caring that I could hit my head on the ceiling, I was very regal, because I had no reason to be ashamed of my height, on the contrary I was grateful for being as I am, when taking the transport that would take me back home I was thinking about what had happened to me at the bank, how people point and talk without knowing how the other person feels, it also made me reflect that on many occasions I have pointed at people because they are small, it feels horrible to be pointed out for the uniqueness that defines us and I came to the conclusion that as human beings we have that particularity that makes us unique, special and unrepeatable beings.
