Nothing Original

I'm trying to be original.  
I want a name that's cool, will set me apart make me feel important. I don't want to be the same as everyone else.  Something different, something new.   I start writing a name...I erase it.  I start writing I erase it.   Finally I choose a name.  
Now this is different!   Who else would have such a name?   Who would even guess where it might have come from?
The next day I realize my attempt at being original have failed again.   Everyone around me faces life in sunshine, rain, dust and potholes there's nothing at all original in that! 

I want my look to be different.   Why should I have to look like everyone else?   But again I find myself wasting much time for things that don't look good - I choose a pre-designed template.   Nothing original at all in that!

Why would I have a blog?   Everyone has a blog.  Why would I want to be like everyone else? If I want to be original I'm for sure not gonna have a blog...
Now if I was blogging to support a cause, or to promote a product or to proclaim the awesomeness of my kids or something WOWish like that then maybe I could blog but for real... no kids, no product, and I'm still working on the cause...

What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again,
there is nothing new under the sun.
