30 day challenge - Day 22
Day 22 - What makes you different from everyone else?
What an awkward question. There's nothing that makes me different from everyone else apart from the undefinable spirit that makes me question what makes me different from everyone else, But everyone has one of those.
The truth is, if I'm honest, I don't know. I'm keen to hear your views.
