Siggy's Blurbs: Siggy's Edge of Country …

I can’t compare myself to anyone.  I have to till the soil that is mine.  God has given me certain gifts.  And has wired me a certain way.  And all I can do is follow that tiny voice only I can hear.

It does me no good to even consider if I will have any kind of legacy.  That is not up to me.  Every person created is different.  There have been billions of people on this earth and each is is unique–a snowflake.

No one can really tell me what to do, what is most important to me, what drives me.  Certainly life is full of others who are too quick to tell you this.

Your conscience is really your ultimate guide.  Your time here is finite and all you can do is unravel the path set out for you, which only you know.  I have to till the soil that is only mine.

Some people’s destiny is grand and others are on a smaller scale –most people for that matter.  You have to accept the place given to you.  We are all part of a whole.  And ripples go forth into the universe when you are following the path only set for you.

Thinking you are perfectly normal all the time is not always a good thing.  You can create havoc around you all the time.  You have no realization of your faults.

For one thing normality is a myth.  No one is perfectly normal.  Every one is imperfect.  Every one is a snowflake.  God never created the same person twice.

You really need to be aware how you come across to others–your idiosyncrasies, then you can compensate for your behavior around others.

If you think you are perfectly normal, you can discount your behavior towards others and have no idea the damage you can causing (???) towards others.

Wasn’t it Socrates that said many eons ago “Know yourself”?  The better you know yourself (???) you, the better you can judge the impact you are having on others.  And change accordingly.

We are all crazy:  each one of us.  Each of us is a snowflake and God never made two identical.  So accept the way God has gifted you, the way God has wired you.  The sooner you do the quicker you can live, march to the tune of a different drummer.  It is only the tune you can hear.  So march to your tune.  The sooner you do, the happier you will be.  And those around you will be happier.

It is those who refuse to be the unique being God created who are generally unhappy.  So learn to accept the unique brand of craziness only you can know.
