P31: Day Two

What makes you uniquely you?

The real challenge is this: how do I answer this question without indulging into vanity and pride? Understanding that first and foremost I am made in the image of God, and therefore more greatly faceted than words or self-inspection will ever reveal. We are created with depths that our human minds and hearts can only begin to explore because we are not made for ourselves, but for God and his joy, and his glory. The bits of self that we do see, and that others see and show to us are all given from God; he opens our eyes not only to his beauty and his character but to our own as well. In his image, remember? What makes me unique/different from others isn't a list of my qualities and traits, but here are some unique things about me anyways!

1. My network of friends is varied and widely diverse because I can relate with most people. 
2. I love to clean. I clean and organize my room almost daily but only make my bed before getting into it.
3. Often times my good intentions are smooshed by my ability to jump to conclusions.
4. I'm told that I am too friendly {and that one day it could get me into trouble}.
5. I have vision for who people can become. Sometimes I forget to see who they are right now, before me.
