My name is unique, Lyndie. There are a few more people with the named spelled Lindy. Still I was almost 18 before I had every heard someone else called ‘Lindy.” My first reaction was to tell them they were mistaken, that was MY name. However, this other girl reacted to their call. It was a strange feeling. For years I was consoled by the knowledge that my spelling was unique, until facebook. I received a friend request from the husband of a “Lyndie” who had grown weary of hearing that she was the only one who had the honor of this name. He went on a mission to prove her wrong and found 5 of us.
I wonder what it means that I saw your question and couldn’t think of anything.

It definitely provokes thought, and I’ve been thinking about it most of the day. And, like Jason, I can’t think of anything!

Um. I know WHO makes me unique….
And I think the answer to WHAT makes us unique is EVERYTHING put together.
I like to write, but so do a ton of others.
I have 4 kids, but a lot of others do too.
I lose things all the time and annoy my husband like crazy because of it. I’m sure there are other women that do that too.
I have brown hair. Like half of the rest of the women in the world.
I have sparkly turquoise toe-nail polish on and LOVE IT! I’m sure there are others out there that like it too!
All these things… plus everything else about me… added together… make me unique. “There’s nothing new under the sun…”

I like Krista’s thoughts on “Who” makes us unique, being “what” makes us unique. All of it put together into a masterpiece!
