Special
Am I special? Simon Amstell explores this question in his Set Free stand-up comedy show that I watched last night. And it’s a question that we all grapple with in our search for identity and meaning in life. You may answer: of course I am special. That’s true, but you are probably not as special as you think (or wish). Each of us is unique, but our abilities or achievements don’t make us better than others. Our similarities exceed our differences. What makes us each special is not our success or legacy. Rather, it is our incredible human journey.
