"Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!"- Dr Seuss
No two origami models are ever exactly the same. No two lives are either. Uniqueness is something we don't have to earn — we already are it.
In real life, elephants are known to have individual memories, character, and presence; each one is recognized and remembered by their herd.
In the context of nonviolence, uniqueness invites us to honor the irreproducible nature of each being — each story, each history, each environment, and each situation.
This little elephant reminds me that being different is not a flaw; it's the whole art.
Today I'm practicing uniqueness by celebrating all handmade objects as delightfully one-of-a-kind.
