The line comes from a little jazz ballad that I heard Natalie Cole sing, as many have done before, but her version stays on my mind. She talk’s of love, but I am talking about you.
There is this thing that makes you unique from everyone. For all the elements that we share: symmetry in our body, being human, as well as a myriad of other things that we have in common with all kinds of people all over the planet, there is something that makes us unique, and that thing is priceless.
You’ve heard this before, but each snow flake is different. In turn, each person’s experience is with a different flake and therefore a slightly different moment. Well, each human is different and each of our experiences are slightly varied from moment to moment from person to person. I am saying, while you don’t need to shave your head bald and choose the strangest outfits you can in order to stand out, you do need to take inventory of you and make a decision to love what makes you different and special. Let the residue of that high school drama go. You no longer need to be like everyone else to survive, you never did. Go ahead and be very, very extraordinary.
