Unique Me
(written by my 9 year old daughter)

"Everyone is unique and different. If we act like other people, then we are not expressing are own uniqueness." - Anonymous

I am unique. Do I want to be unique? Do I feel unique? I feel unique. Is that good? Sometimes I feel that when I'm unique it's bad but when a cool person is unique it's good. Is that just my self conscience or is it true?

But what is unique. Is unique unique? Or is unique a girl who is so clueless about trends but is even prettier then the style diva? Is unique a boy who can read minds but struggles with talking? That’s one good question! Everyone's unique is a different…you know uniqueness! I'm not sure what my uniqueness is. I mean I know I am unique, but what is unique in my mind? I guess since I said I am unique then that’s what unique means to me. ME? There has to be more to unique then me! I mean I know it! Well maybe some day I'll just look up the world unique in the dictionary. I know!

Unique: One of a kind.

"I am not eccentric! It's just I am more alive then other people! I am an unpopular electric eel in a pond full of goldfish." - Dame Edith Sitwell
