You Are Unique
Think what a remarkable 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 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!

Your thinking, philosophy, and appreciation of photography and poetry are so closely related to my own, that I am in a state of amazement. It is like redisovering myself in someone else's art. Poetry and photography have been a way of life for me. I was especially amazed to find "You Are Unique" which I have echoed in one of my own poems published in Science of Mind a few years ago. I'll be glad to send you a copy if you wish. I have an unfinished website similar to yours and will let you know when it is completed.
