Often we want to be somewhere other than where we are, or even someone other than who we are. We tend to compare ourselves constantly with others and wonder why we are not as rich, saintly, gorgeous, or smart as they are. Such comparisons make us feel guilty for being less talented, ashamed of being yourself, and jealous of not being "as good". We need to realize we are all human beings, each with a calling in life that is DIFFERENT. We must come to a realization in our own lives that no one else can, and to realize that our calling in life is not to be as everyone else. We are all unique. We can never be anyone else. We will NEVER find happiness by trying to figure out whether we are better or worse than others. We are good enough to do what God called us to do! Be yourself!
