Special by Heart and Deeds

          This was the first time I asked myself about what makes me special, IF I am really special. It's not right to ask my brain because it would definitely say yes. I am a normal person, born from my normal parents and lives a normal life. So if I am going to answer that question, it would be a no. There's nothing special about me. But if God believes that all of us are special, I should also believe. He knows things better than I do. I know he has enough reasons to say that we're special. Maybe it's not just about who I am. Maybe it's also about what I do that makes me special.

          It isn't, for me. Let's say I show who I am and do what I want. But sometimes, I show not-so-good traits and attitudes. I do harsh things. That would not definitely  be the reason of God for believing I am special. Being special is being yourself and doing right things from your heart.

          I am not a very, very kind person who will do all the good things in life just to be special. I want to do what St. Therese did. She is a saint, many people admire her. Many people consider her special. But what makes me amazed the most are her ways on how to be special. She had her own little ways to do right things for herself and for others. I am not a saint, but I know I've done right things in my own little ways.

          It's not that I do good things to be special. It's just that I am special because I show who I am and do kind things in my own ways. I do not need to do what others say in order to be special. I won't change myself for others to appreciate me. I'll stay the same as long as I do things the right way because I know that God appreciate s me for who I am and what I do.

"If you want to be special, be true. If you want to be true, be yourself. If you want to be yourself, do the right things."
