Some of us are doctors, some are lawyers, athletes, autoworkers, firemen, etc., and some might even be writers or entertainers.  Some are themselves in the public eye, but most of us are ourselves in private.  But make no mistake, we all are something!  Something good, something important and something worth it.  

Being unique, being you is what makes this world go.  Imagine if we all thought the same, acted the same because we were all made the same.  In who’s image would we be?  Would it be the soft-spoken, laid-back image?  Would it be the boisterous, loud angry image?  Would it be the brainy, nerd image or the no opinion follower image?  Then, who would lead?

Just think about that, all the same, wow what a bore life would be.  

Thank God for “unique me”, “unique you” and “unique everybody else”.  Celebrate you being you! Celebrate you being true to you!  All the innovations and creations that unique minds have made.  All the laughter and enjoyment that unique personalities have given us.  All the knowledge and wisdom that unique experiences have given us.  We are blessed to be unique!

There is no need to feel pressed to try and be like someone else or wish we were someone else.  Their spot is already filled with them.  Your spot is yours and yours alone.  Work on being the best version of yourself, doesn’t matter what someone else wants you to be, who you are is good enough.  Just be you, do you and be true to you!

Go on with your “unique” self!
