YOU are ONE OF A KIND!

Just a short note tonight-since it's a late night again for me. It is very cool that we, as individuals, are so unique. We were all raised differently, even within the same family! Our experiences are all unique to us..."YOU" and only "YOU" have your experiences. There is nobody...NO ONE..on earth like YOU. How cool is that?
An important lesson I have learned and relearned (over and over!) in my life is...everyone interprets things differently. We cannot know exactly how someone will "take" things we say or do. We can easily offend someone without even intending to do so. This is why we must NEVER judge others...even if they offend us. We all are different, and each of our views of the "world" are different. I need to work on accepting, respecting, and loving the uniqueness of all persons around me-and not be so quick to be offended or upset. What a waste of time and energy to feel and harbor these negative feelings. I love and enjoy the diversity within my circle of family and friends-as well as all people in this WORLD. I feel at home, and at ease, accepting them all...with love...despite the differences. We all do need certain things....love, and each other. That is what we have in common that really counts. That's enough for me.
I Love you all. Thank you for the greatest gift of all-"YOU"!
-Wendy
