We are not

So, this just dawned on me. I figure its worth sharing, so those who care can wonder about the language we speak. Chew on this:

We aren't 
We’re not 

They are essentially the same. But if you think about it, they are read, said, and considered entirely different. One emphasizes we, the other not, depending on which is contracted.

Definitely worth thinking about for a minute. Even two.
