Thankful Thursday - The Same Yet Different


Recently, it occurred to me that I am thankful for two totally opposite things. I love it when I hit it off with somebody and I realize all the things that we have in common. Or, when I'm reminded that we are all part of this human experience, and whatever odd little moment I'm going through, I am not alone. Somebody out there can relate. I love that feeling of camaraderie.
On the other hand, I love how unique and different we all are. The diversity is amazing. I am often in awe of other artists creativity. I love their expression of the way their mind is working. I think it's wonderful that my mind can come up with odd little thoughts, that feel so "me". I think it's great that all of you are out there thinking thoughts that are totally "you".
So, today I'm thankful that we are all the same yet different. What unique, or universal, thing are you thankful for? I always love it when you share.
