When you think about it. Being one in a Million really isn't that unique. With well over 6 Billion people on Earth..... being 1 in a Million is like having 6000 other people just like you.
I'm not sure I'm ok with that saying. How can it be that I act the way I do. Look the way I do. With all of my imperfections, hopes & dreams. I'm still just 1 in a Million?????
I have met people like me, but not exactly like me. I don't think I could ever be replicated. I may share certain looks with my family, but they differ ever so slightly. Personalities also differ from person to person. Some may be similar, but all can change and morph as a person grows and matures.
The saying "You're 1 in a Million" is untrue. There is no one exactly like you. Everyone has something that makes them who they are. Next time some one says that to you...... don't stand for it. Rebel!
"How dare you say I'm 1 in 6000!? I'm a unique individual. I deserve distinction & I will not have you imply that I'm just a face in the crowd!!! To be completely accurate Sir/Madame I am 1 in 6+ Billion. HUMPH"
That'll show them & they'll think twice about using such a demeaning line again.
Granted, "You're 1 in 6+ Billion" doesn't sound as romantic or flow off the tongue as gracefully as "You're 1 in a Million" but it's accurate & true. When you get right down to it...... that's all that matters -- that & not being called "1 in a Million"
I may have taken a light approach with this topic, but it rings true.

That's a great way to look at life
However... if you want to be 1 in 6+ billion, you shouldn't use phrases like "HELLZ NAH!" lol. Everyone uses things like that ;-)

You should take comfort in the fact that less than one million people have really shaped the history of man.
