“As we grow as
unique
persons,
we learn to respect the
uniqueness
of others.”
Robert H. Schuller
i was once told long ago by a boy
"you are unique"
UNIQUE
alone
radically distinctive and without equal
at the time
i did not like that word he had chosen
i was left bothered
i was hoping and wishing for some kind of pretty or sweet
n.o.t.
UNIQUE
being the only one of its kind
see back then
had i actually looked up this word
i could have embraced the thought behind such comment
without an equal or equivalent
unparalleled
i think
i could have received
UNIQUE
unusual
extraordinary
as a compliment
“Don't let anyone tell you
that you have to be a certain way.
Be
unique.
Be what you feel.”
Melissa Etheridge
years have gone by
MANY to say the least
I EMBRACE
UNIQUE
highly unusual
rare
I Seek
UNIQUE
not usual or common or ordinary
I Welcome
UNIQUE
one and only
single
sole
I Savor
UNIQUE
“Each one of you has something no one else has,
or has ever had:
your fingerprints, your brain, your heart.
Be an individual.
Be
unique.
Stand out. Make noise. Make someone notice.
That's the power of individuals.”
Jon Bon Jovi
i have seen it
i have felt it
i DO...understand such words
is that not the
S.I.M.P.L.E.
joy of living life
“What each must seek in his life never was on land or sea.
It is something out of his own
unique
potentiality for experience,
something that never has been
and never could have been experienced by anyone else.”
Joseph Campbell
being
UNIQUE
each in our own way
who we are
what we say
how we create
the way we express ourselves
“The greatness of art is
not to find what is common
but what is unique”
Isaac Bashevis Singer
UNIQUE
why ever would we want to be or act or do as another?
we are
who we are
we can change
but
shouldn't we always remain true to thine self
“Know that
although in the eternal scheme of things you are small,
you are also
unique and irreplaceable,
as are all your fellow humans everywhere in the world.”
Margaret Laurence
UNIQUE
each in our own special way
an authentic representation of our life
and
how we chose to live
to be like NO other
to open our arms to the difference
to stand tall in our reflection
of who we are as individuals
UNIQUE
imagine if we were all the same
what kind of world that would be
we are here are for a reason
to be as we wish
to live as we feel
and i hope that would be
UNIQUE
you as you are

imagine if we were all the same? ... such a sad thought. i love how different you and i are - i learn and grow from our friendship all the time!
your blog is always inspiring and rich of good words...I love to be different from the other and unique for my family (probably)...
but... because we are all unique, that makes us all the same... except different... lol. here's to everyone revelling in their uniqueness!!
Gosh, I love being unique. Funny, when I was younger, they used to call it 'rebellious' and perhaps I was in a way, but I always believed in being my own self.

Your blog is unique too!
You had me at the Bon Jovi quote ; )
Yay for individuality! I think I'd go insane if everyone were like me (I'm pretty sure there would definitely be an Armaggedon anyway).
A wonderful celebration of being special and proud of it! Here's to your uniqueness fairwillow :)
