I've talked with friends before about how we can be so different, yet get along so well... For example, a LOT of my friends REALLY love to scrapbook. I'd rather poke my eyes out with a fork, personally. I can't imagine spending an entire day (much less an entire weekend, as some of them love to do) cutting things out and gluing. But I enjoy looking at the final product. Maybe that's a bond we have, then. They like to do... I like to see.
Last weekend when I was shopping with Kristin, we both lay some items on the counter so we could shop a little more. When we returned to the counter, I couldn't help laughing.
Here's Kristin's pile:
And here's mine:
Here they are side-by-side. Note that we are similar enough to buy 2 of the same items for our boys, yet look at the differences.
Do you think you have more SIMILARITIES or more DIFFERENCES than your close friends? How about your family?

I would definitely say "differences." I think most of my family would probably be appalled to think they were much like me! Your Sis and I, however, do think a lot alike sometimes.
I must be pretty similar to most people I spend the most time with, b/c I'm always surprised to find "big" differences. We at least share the core values. I think I'm different now than I used to be too. My pile would have looked like Kristin's at one time. Now I would celebrate getting something on the counter without any stains. :)
