The way we are is a way of how we are shaped by our minds. That's one reason why we need to stop comparing. Comparison at its sense is not a good thing.  We may see similarities or differences on different people, but see them as individual human beings. Not because they are on the same boat, travelling on the same sea, they are the same, no! They are on the same boat, the same sea, but they are not the same. 

We were shaped differently, even if we came from the same family, we will always have different point of views, different mottos in life, different way of life, even the path we follow will always be different. 

Life is different for everyone. Stop comparing!
