Think what a remarkable, unduplicatable, and miraculous thing it is
to be you! Of all the people who have come and gone on the earth, since
the beginning of time, not ONE of them is like YOU!
No one who has
ever lived or is to come has had your combination of abilities,
talents, appearance, friends, acquaintances, burdens, sorrows and
opportunities.
No one’s hair grows exactly the way yours does. No
one’s finger prints are like yours. No one has the same combination of
secret inside jokes and family expressions that you know.
The few
people who laugh at all the same things you do, don’t sneeze the way you
do. No one prays about exactly the same concerns as you do. No one is
loved by the same combination of people that love you – NO ONE!
No one before, no one to come. YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE!
Enjoy
that uniqueness. You do not have to pretend in order to seem more like
someone else. You weren’t meant to be like someone else. You do not have
to lie to conceal the parts of you that are not like what you see in
anyone else.
You were meant to be different. Nowhere ever in all
of history will the same things be going on in anyone’s mind, soul and
spirit as are going on in yours right now.
If you did not exist, there would be a hole in creation, a gap in history, something missing from the plan for humankind.
Treasure your uniqueness. It is a gift given only to you. Enjoy it and share it!
No one can reach out to others in the same way that you can. No one
can speak your words. No one can convey your meanings. No one can
comfort with your kind of comfort. No one can bring your kind of
understanding to another person.
No one can be cheerful and
lighthearted and joyous in your way. No one can smile your smile. No one
else can bring the whole unique impact of you to another human being.
Share
your uniqueness. Let it be free to flow out among your family and
friends and people you meet in the rush and clutter of living wherever
you are. That gift of yourself was given you to enjoy and share. Give
yourself away!
