You are unique

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

I guess this means in regards to someone’s personality or maybe their appearance or even a combination of both.

There is a certain projection of character each of us conveys to the world that could be described as unique making us appear who we are or different to one another.

Children seem to be able to recognise it in adults at first sight. How is this possible? At the same time, it can be very hard to describe uniqueness in a person. This is the stuff of actors and comedians with their nuanced mimicry and ability to flesh out a person’s character or capture a certain turn of phrase or uncanny smile.

However, if you’re not careful you may find yourself in a hall of mirrors. If you stare long enough in the reflection you can get the wrong idea. ‘I look terrible this morning’ or ‘why do I look so different?’ or ‘mirror, mirror on the wall who is..?’ etc. While others may forever feel doubtful or subject to scrutiny simply because they don’t reflect on themselves.

Leave it up to others I say. Am I unique? No, damn it. I’m not.

  1. I think each of us is unique. We are not, however, all wealthy or famous which seems to be how the world defines “greatness” these days. It’s a shallow definition which overlooks all those hidden figures who sacrificial lives for the benefit of others. Use the talents you have for the good of the world, and you will not go far wrong — whether the world recognizes your uniqueness or not.
