It's not arrogance though, my signs and symbols; it is not a belief that the universe is speaking just for me, that makes me see myself in all things. It is that I am small, and trivial and without siblings, and to see myself reflected in the randomness of the world... it is hard to explain sometimes, the way I put my faith in math.
I think I may know exactly what you mean. Everyone I am at all close to is either an only child (only a few) or a youngest child, but the only children I know are always strange in odd and minor ways in their interactions with others, as of course am I.
