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!
See it! Receive it!
Let it tickle you!
Let it inform you and
nudge you and inspire you!
YOU ARE UNIQUE!
