Treating people differently

    You know i'm no stranger to feeling like i'm treated different, but sometimes it hits me just how different I am, or have been treated at times. I see how people treat others, and then recall that for me it was.. well different. No one was ever really cruel or anything, if anything they would simply avoid me. I was treated delicately, which I know at times that was probably for the better, but still I wonder, what would have happened if I had been treated like everyone else? Did they think I couldn't handle it, or just not want to bother with it?
    I'm not going to go into the details of what brought this on, but basically i'm feeling like people should try and treat everyone the same. Because sometimes you may think your being nice by treating someone different than you would someone else in the same situation. Well that person may be happy you at least included them, but they may also be thinking did you really include me, or just pacify me?
    We all know that everyone is equal, and I think everyone deserves a chance to at least try something before it gets modified. It may not always work out, but at least every can say it was tried.
    So just remember that the next time you think about treating someone a little different, even if it is to help them. Because if were never given a chance how would you feel?
