Wise word Wednesday: Embrace your uniqueness! There was a dense forest. All trees were straight and tall. Their trunks were broad and shapely. But, there was one tree which was having a crooked and shapeless trunk. The crooked trunk tree was sad. He thought \"How ugly I am! All others are straight and shapely. I alone have crooked trunk.\" One day a wood-cutter came there. He looked around and said \"I will cut all trees here, except that crooked tree. That is of no use to me\".
\nHe cut away all other trees.
\nNow, the crooked tree was happy for its crookedness. You and I are like the crooked tree, we may not always fit in because your purpose is different than those around you.
\nToday remember you don't have to conform or be like everyone else to be saved, be happy for your uniqueness!
