#561 alike

I heard someone remark with wonder that “no two snowflakes are alike.”  What caused me the amazement is that the other person seemed genuinely astonished by this.

What two things are alike?  I doubt that two leaves on a tree are identical or two pieces of fruit. 

Yesterday was registration day so our staff wore identical polo shirts, yet each expressed themselves in different ways.  “Polo and khakis” looked different on everyone.

Instead of focusing on the differences, even in little ways, we should appreciate the commonalities and the ties that bind us together on this journey.
