The Wednesday Word: Original

Today’s word is original. Defined in Webster’s Dictionary as independent and creative in thought or action, a person of fresh initiative or inventive capacity or a unique or eccentric person. There is a lot of pressure today to conform, to be like everyone else. But as someone who tried that it is way overrated.

We were each created to be unique individuals with our own gifts for the world. If we try to be like everyone else something will be missing. So go ahead and be the original you were created to be. Conformity is way overrated and not nearly as fun.
