You may have noticed with a sigh of relief or an edge of frustration you are one of a kind.
There is no one quite like you, not even close.
Oh your profile may reveal familial similarities, a relative may mistake you for your brother or sister, there may be a striking resemblance to your grandparent when she or he was your age; but you are unique and you know it.
You draw connections, see parallels in ways you know are a little crazy.
Words, music, aromas, one-liners, associate across decades and you resort to momentary introspective giggles because sharing whatever you just thought or saw or felt would take too long to explain and it would be meaningless to anyone else breathing.
On top of that your head is full of what ifs, not regrets, but possibilities, hopes, aspirations; most of them not for yourself but for people you love. Periodically you think you’re going to burst with ideas, love, passion, when you sneak a glimpse of how beautiful the people in your life really are and how much talent and life they ferry around everyday.
There are creeping regrets. You have to fight them off like an invasive species ‘cause they keep trying to ruin the moment.
But, truth is, they earned their place but some, not all, have overstayed their welcome.
Fall on your knees in thanksgiving.
There is only one of you.
