Today after work I met with a few friends for coffee. We talked a lot about stuff, including quests of some men in our circle competing with each others towards getting returned affections of a favourite female.
After the meet, I went straight to the bus stop to catch my ride home. The buses were late, and when they came, they were all full.
Finally a bus came. It opened the door right in front of me. But as I was about to swing my left foot into the bus, the driver drove the bus a little and I was no longer in the first 'place' to get into the bus.
A few people got in, and as I was about to get in, the driver stopped me, signalling that the bus was already full.
But he didn't close the door.
A few seconds later, he called a lady next to me, asking her to get into the bus. She was the last person to get into that bus. Then the bus left.
I am now on another bus. It was quite empty. And just minutes ago I saw the guy in front of me using the same iPhone casing as the one currently in my hands.
What makes us unique? What could makes us special such that we could be the ones who get that special attention from people we love? What should we do so that we could get the last spot om the bus? What happens if we are no longer unique as someone elses have already got the same things that we originally thought were unique?
Apparently there is nothing we can do to make us unique. Because we already are. We were created according to The Image that has unlimited sides and angles. One thing that I learned lately is that we are created with our special niche, and therefore we should never worry about competition.
If we won, it was already ours to begin with. If we lost, then it was not even ours to begin with. Of course efforts are still required, but at the end of the day, we should not be a someone we are not.
