I think insight, intelligence, cleverness et all manifest in different ways. For instance, I think I'm just as smart as K, but she tends to be much quicker and more articulate. She'll make a lot of connections and grasp things at once, and use a far more sophisticate vocabulary to describe them. I tend to be slow and plodding. I take a long time to assemble my thoughts and when I do, they don't sound very shiny. But I definitely can see things she doesn't, you know?
In the end I think we should just try to say what we think, because all of *are* unique. Inevitably our opinion is going to be special in some way. But it's hard not to be scared or feel irrelevant :o(
