The different-er, the sexier



As I'm sitting in my grandma's house in midtown Manhattan, I'm listening to Yo-Yo Ma and the man, Frank Sinatra. While drinking infinite amounts of coffee, and smelling my grandpa's famous cooking, I’m on Yahoo.com where I finally came to the realization that no matter what pessimists believe, you will eventually find that one perfect person that you will love entirely.

For some I’ve spoken to in the past, current, and perhaps even future, they’ve said, “Oh Emmellene, I am weird. Look at my flaws. Do you see that heinous thing? Nobody will like a person like me.” And so on.

With all the hype of divorce and hate manifesting the news media, it’s sometimes hard to believe that true love really exists.

Many times, however, your flaw can work as your greatest asset whether you like it or not.

Recognized by the Guinness World Records, standing at 7 feet and 8.9 inches tall, Bao Xishun is the world’s tallest living man. Wait. I mean he’s the world’s tallest living, married man.

I first thought his wife was going to be very tall, but instead, she’s more than two feet shorter than him and as a matter of fact, she’s only 28 years his junior.

Hope it all works out for them.
