There is only one of you. No one else in the world shares your fingerprints. No one else can experience the way your heart feels about things. No one can see through the lens you use to see life quite the same as you do. Be in awe of this individuality- but accept it, too. Honor it. Praise it. Do not be quick to compromise it. In your desire to fit in or make others happy, you may be tempted to pretend to be someone you are not. You may even act in ways that are out character with who you really are. When you do this, you lose out on the real you. As importantly, the world loses out on you too. Strive to be a healthy, happy and enlightened person- and then, taking your place alongside your fellow travelers, offer this self to the waiting world.
