Смысл текста песни "Great to Be Different" исполнителя "Forest Rain"

It was a dark day when I lost my faith

I wasn't the pony I thought I'd be

And it seemed that no one could relate

There was nothing left to see

So I took a walk to the edge of the town

And thought of leaving it all behind

When I saw a little letter fall right out of the sky

As a grey mare hovered way up high

I thought I was crazy when I saw her wave

And then simply fly away

So I opened the letter and looked inside

And what was written made my day...

It said ~

Isn't it great to be different?

Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are?

When you learn to start accepting yourself

You'll become a shining star

To this day the writing on that page

Is mottled by the tears I shed

Cuz at that moment something inside me changed

And a bright new path I lead

I ran back home and I picked up my old guitar

And I started strumming these chords

And I sang her words along with this song

And I heard someone sing along

And we sang ~

Isn't it great to be different?

Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are?

When you learn to start accepting yourself

You'll become a shining star

I turned around and I saw her at my door

That cute grey mare with the wall-eyed stare

She said, "I've heard you play and sing before.

And I heard a sadness I could not bear."

"I just wanted to tell you that the hardest thing I've faced

Wasn't the teasing or the pain

It was convincing myself I wasn't stupid, strange, or lame

And helping others do the same."

whistling

These last few years flew by just like a blur

I'm now exactly where I should be

And I know I owe it all to her

The beautiful mare who believed in me ~

Isn't it great to be different?

Isn't it wonderful to be exactly who you are?

When you learn to start accepting yourself

You'll become a shining star

You'll become a shining star (Isn't it wonderful)

You'll become a shining star (Isn't it great)

When you learn to love just who you are
