Og Mandino Quote

An Excerpt from The Greatest Miracle in the World - Consider a painting by Rembrandt or a bronze by Degas or a violin by Stradivarius or a play by Shakespeare.  They have great value for two reasons:  their creators were masters and they are few in number.  Yet there are more than one of each of these.On that reasoning you are the most valuable treasure on the face of the earth, for you know who created you and there is only one of you.Never, in all of the seventy billion humans who have walked this planet since the beginning of time has there been anyone exactly like you.  Never, until the end of time, will there be another such as you.You have shown no knowledge or appreciation of your uniqueness.Yet, you are the rarest thing in the world.
