Differences

The difference between myself and all the other people who woke up this morning is shrinking with each morning. I’ve enjoyed thinking of myself as special but the world is becoming increasingly the same with each passing day, and it isn’t just the cultural diversity that is disappearing, it is the biological diversity that is decreasing as well. There are more humans that wake up every morning and less other-than-humans. More homo colossus and less homo sapiens. Everyday I wake up and wonder how I might still be a beautiful unique snowflake in an avalanche.
