We’re All Originals

Isn’t it great just how original we all are? How on Earth did God make us so unique, so fascinating, so specifically ourselves? Just think of all the gifts and interests God has given us so that we might reach others who are similar, yet even more different still. These differences are what make us each interesting, and is why the better authors, those who are considered “literary,” are able to paint their characters so uniquely and vividly that they literally come alive to us.

What a shame, then, that we have whole denominations, specific religious institutions, and sets of moral teachings, that try to cram everybody into the same personality, spiritual gift and talent boxes based on what is considered within a particular culture a gender “norm.” It’s these wonderful differences that make us at our core really us. Beware those forces in your surroundings that try to make you less than what God made you. Beware where you go to church.
