Julia was Very Special In all the world there was nobody like her. Since the beginning of time, there has never been another person like her. Nobody had her smile, her eyes, her hands, her hair. Nobody owns her voice, her handwriting, her unique way of communicating with others. she was Special. Nobody could paint like her. Nobody had her taste for food, music, dance or art. Nobody in the world could see things as she did. In all time, there has never been anyone who laughs in exactly her way, and what made her laugh or cry or think may have a totally different response in another. So, Julia was Special. she was different from any other person who has ever lived in the history of the world. She was the only one in the whole world who had her particular set of abilities. There is always someone who is better at one thing or another. Every person is your superior in at least one way. But nobody in this world could reach the quality of the combination of her talents, her feelings. Through all eternity, no one will ever love, walk, talk, think or act exactly like her. Remember, Julia was Special. she was rare, and in all rarity there is enormous value. She was Special, and it is no accident she was. Please realise that God made Julia for a special purpose. God had a job for her to do that nobody else could do as well as .shed could. Out of the billions of applicants, only one is qualified. Only one has the unique and right combination of what it takes, and that one was Julia. Julia was and still is Very, Very Special! original poem by Steve McDonald -ex officer of the Law for the NYPD. revised by me for Julia
