about

As humans, we share certain characteristics, but there is only one of us. We are truly all originals. There never has been, nor will be, another one of you or me. Everything from our smile to our DNA makes us unique. We interpret our own reality, based on what we learn from independent thought and the things we’ve been taught and it helps shape our personality.

From birth to death, we have an opportunity to leave our mark on humanity. I not only think about the effect we have during our lifetime, but also what we leave for future generations. Some take advantage of this gift of opportunity and others squander it.

We come in different shapes and size, different color hair and eyes; differences in gender, age and race. Regardless of our internal thoughts and beliefs and outward physical appearances, we are wonders, one and all! I believe that if we give a greater value to these differences and if we share a sacred bond of unity, we as a human race, are stronger exponentially!

lyrics

We are all originals, unique individuals with a separate and distinct identity
Though some of us might share a name, no two of us are made the same, we each claim our own reality
We’re a blend of independent thought, and all the things that we’re taught; bound to our genetic chemistry
All the choices that we make and everything we give and take reveals our personality
We’re Originals in every way, from our smile to our DNA, the only one of us there’ll ever be
From the moment that we’re given birth, ‘til the day we leave this Earth, we have an opportunity
To leave our mark on humanity
We come in different shapes and size, different color hair and eyes, differences in gender, age and race
Big, small, short and tall; we are wonders, one and all; equal members of this human race
I don’t care what anybody says, I think our strength is in our differences and a sacred bond of unity
And when we give a greater value to, the uniqueness of me and you, we are stronger exponentially
We’re Originals in every way, from our smile to our DNA, the only one of us there’ll ever be
From the moment that we’re given birth, ‘til the day we leave this Earth, we have an opportunity
To leave our mark on humanity
