Individuality No two snowflakes are just alike. The same is said for you and me. God made us each to his own plan, With idividuality. Why should either of us be scorned, The other looked on favorably? I could have easily been you And you could just as well be me. We had no part in our designs, God was the sculptor of us all. We cannot know his reason why, I am so short and you are tall. If I look at you with disdain, I'm mocking God and that won't do. It's individuality That's keeping me from being you.

(sigh) I too believe you should only be yourself and you have every right to be inspired by others but just put yourself in first person! (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joyce, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you!

Indeed!! God loves us all and made us unique. What a wonderful way of putting it. Enjoyed this much. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.--Jesus Christ |

Your last stanza is so very true, and we should indeed celebrate our uniqueness. I loved this poem ~ The soul lies buried in ink that does not flow ~ |
