All Men Are Not The Same!

It's okay. Really.

You. You're the only you that ever existed. The only you that exists. The only you that will ever exist. God "The Creator" is too creative to mass produce. You're not a duplicate. You're not a clone. You are you! You're not just "another one" (in Khaled's voice) off the assembly line.

The Difference Is Clear!

Think about it. Out of the over 7 billion people on the planet, you're an original. This means it's a privilege for anyone who meets you - because you're the only you they will ever meet. Knowing how you're and who you're should do many things to you. It should inform your thinking, approach, value and esteem. This alone should make you walk with your head held high.

There is a difference between six and half of a dozen...

Now that we have established your awesomeness. You can appreciate that everyone else is created in a unique way. Meaning amongst other things that their appearance, thinking, idiosyncrasies, beliefs, mannerisms et al will be unique. This becomes imperative in human dealings because it necessarily implies that if people are different, then there will be differences. However, it seems we have accepted differences in cars, clothes, shoes, phones, places and other trivial things - but people!
All lions are animals but not all animals are lions! I have watched enough of Nat Geo Wild to know that whilst lions and cheetahs are in the Leo Clan, these Big Cats have their unique styles. The cheetah leverages on its lightening speed and the lion leverages on stealth.

Unity not uniformity!

I don't know if it's just me or someone out there notices shades of conformity almost everywhere. It seems whenever you have a contrary opinion from what appears to be a consensus, you're given that look as if you just dropped from Mars.
Many people are being bullied, intimidated, cowered, cajoled and even being coered to conform to certain thinking. If everybody loves rice and you dare say it's beans you like, you get the cold-shoulder treatment. Almost saying with body language "how dare you have a contrary opinion?"

Identity. Who are you?

Mr. Murdock, the wise sage retorts: "wisdom is the ability to recognize differences". True say. This is because your value is in your difference. Once you lose your uniqueness or allow someone talk you out of it, your value will be greatly eroded!
The principal problem of man is identity/image crises. Adam was made a god by God but because he didn't know, he allowed himself to be talked out of his divinity. As one preacher puts it: "the devil sold him his own furniture!"
Identity is at the core of destiny. Stop apologizing for who you are or how you are! Whether you love classic music or pop music, it's no indictment on your greatness. It's the manufacturer that has the exclusive rights to define his product. Only God can define you.
Who you're cannot be defined by a vox pop! People's opinion of you cannot become your reality!

Whether big or small, love them all!

If everyone were to be the same, the world would be pretty boring 👎*yawns*. Embrace the differences of others and what they bring to the table. I am not you. You are not me. Allow me to be me, as I allow you to be you. Every once in a while we need "outliers", "weirdos", "odd" people to make the world more interesting. Note, I didn't say extremists.
Learning is not for imitation; it's for emulation. Don't be a copy copy uncle like Mark Angel.
Be you. Your true self. For therein lies your greatness!
