About The Kiwi And The Apple

You and I are not the same. There're a difference between you and me, did I told you that before? I know your answer, you will say: I know, everyone is unique. Or something comparable to that like I have blue eyes and you don't. We know, we all do, but there are so many times even in my life we act like we don't know. We, better to say, I compare my own life, my body, my talents with others. But that's the same as comparing an apple with a kiwi. They both have the colour green; there are people with a black skin and with a white one. Does that mean that all the blacks are the same, or all the white's? No.

There are so many different sorts of fruit, as well as there are uncountable sorts of people. That's a gift! When I compare myself with someone else it has two possible effects. One: I think I do better, what makes me arrogant and I think bad of the other person at the same time. Or two: I think the other is better than I am and that I need to change, than I think bad on my own life and if I can't change it feels like I'm failing. But if a kiwi thinks an apple is better because of his size and he want to be as big as the apple is, does that make any sense to the flavour of the kiwi? You will have more, but you can eat two of them if you want to have more kiwi. So, I don't think so!

As I said a few lines before; it's a gift that we're all unique. Do you realize what that means? We are all good as we are!

It's better to dare yourself to be true,
than to compare who is better or worser than you.
