Text/Dream sky is slightly blue
I once saw a sentence on the Internet: "People can endure loneliness, but they can't refuse warmth." "Deeply impressed.
Everyone lives in this world, even if they can accept loneliness, but deep down, they look forward to being able to connect with others and get some earthly warmth.
Regrettably, however, we rarely have the courage to take this step to actually connect with others.

In the book "The Unique You", there is such a person who wants to integrate into the outside world, but always hides in the corner, silently enduring loneliness, because he feels that he is a strange coffee.
He is a special character created by Lampe Butkap, the famous screenwriter Matthew Gray Guppler.
Lampe Butkap feels like a geek because he doesn't look like a normal person.
He only has 5 teeth, 3 hairs, the skin is green, the two feet are not the same size, while the other people's teeth are neatly lined up, more than 3 hairs, the skin is not green, and the two feet are almost the same size.
He was afraid that his appearance would frighten people, and he was afraid that others would hate him and smash his stones, so he hid in the underground drainage ditch and lived alone.
There is a trash can next to the drain, which is lampo Butkap's treasure chest. His only good friend, Corn Candy Man, is made from scrap found in the trash can.
He pasted the corn candy man against the wall and chatted with it every day for hours at a time.
He expected corn candy man to respond to him, but it was just his naïve idea.

Perhaps, everyone has such a lonely moment, the world is only themselves, and only themselves can talk. Therefore, we are more looking forward to someone who can pull themselves and get rid of loneliness.
Lampe Batkap longed for the outside world, but did not dare to go to the crowd.
He hid quietly in the drainage ditch, looking out at the outside world.
He looked at the people who were playing happily, laughing and talking, and living happily in a world full of sunshine.
Sometimes, though, he would go out on dark nights. But before going out, he would still dress up in disguise, put a banana peel on his head, and then crawl out of the gutter with his eyes closed and sit motionless next to the trash can.
In his own way, he participates alone in the outside world, as if he is one of them.
In this way, day after day, year after year, the years passed, and Lampe Butkap lived alone.

For Lamphu Badkap, the happiest day of the year is the 17th Saturday of summer, when the outside world is lined up and is particularly lively.
He also goes out for a walk, and it's the only day of the year when he goes out in broad daylight.
Because the day was so lively, he felt that no one would notice him.
However, a later accident made him understand that he was not alone, and that in this world, there had always been people paying attention to him; it turned out that everyone was very "strange"; it turned out that "strange" was not a derogatory word, but a positive word, which meant that each of us was different and unique.
In this way, Lampe Butkap finally got rid of the shackles of his heart, bravely went to the outside world, and found a sense of inner belonging. Since then, his world has been full of sunshine and warmth.
This is a story told by the author in the book "The Unique You".
