There is nothing wrong with feeling special, and of course it comes from inside. As several of the members have said, what happens outside does affect the inside of a person. When I wear my kilt, I feel special, not just because of how people respond to me, but also because it tells me something about myself. I am different from those around me, I do not go along with the crowd of sheeple. I see no harm, in fact I see good in that. Mindless automatons are what big brother wants, I will not be one, I will stand out. I would rather die on my feet, than live on my knees.
