We are all the same, but different

We are all not only different, but we are also the same as well. I will give a few examples. We are all the same in the sense that we all have thoughts, feelings, and personalities. But we are all different in the sense that we all have different thoughts, different feelings, and different personalities. There are also moments where two people can think the same thought.

So these two people would be the same in the sense that they both have the same thought. But these two people would also be different in the sense that other aspects of them are different such as the fact that they wear different clothes, have different skin color, etc. One last example would be that we are all the same in the sense that we all have consciousness. But we are all different in the sense that we all have different conscious experiences and different levels of consciousness.

I'm not sure that one can conclude that two people are the same because they have the same thought. Wouldn't you think same thoughts by two people are a product of their environment? Or can you cite a situation where two people would have the same thought without any outside influence?

to put it in my favorite sarcastic format. "you're special....just like everyone else."
