what in your book, defines 'extra ordinary'  I'm thinking when we talk about people,

there are a lot of people in my life that I think of as 'extra ordinary'

 they are people that just have that certain something about them, they go the extra mile, they have that special 'something'
 
 moonriver I am certain you will all agree is 'extra ordinary'

whilst everyone is extra ordinary in their own special way, some stand out from the crowd..

whats your defintion of extra ordinary?

    My definition of extra ordinary is someone who goes beyond what is reasonably expected of them for someone they have no expectation of reward from.
     
    There are many extra ordinary people in my life and online.  Each giving of themselves with no thought of any type of reward.

    In my opinion, for somebody to be considered extraordinary they've got to have compassion, intelligence, unwavering faith in themselves, strength, and also the ability to take responsibility for and admit the times that they may be wrong.  If a person has all of these qualities in abundance, and combined with whatever their "base" ability is, they'll be extraordinary in my book.

    when they do something nobody has the guts to do...
     
    like following a dream when everybody is against it...
     
    like doing something you don't even dream of doing...
     
    like falling in love without reason, without expectation, just loving...
     
    maybe that's what extraordinary is... having the guts to do it...

    extra ordinary huh? well I guess for me it defines someone who gives 150% whilst also helping others/highlighting a situation/creating something new/giving something back to the society.
     
    I also think it represents someone a little oddball for me... terrier like in their conviction, forthright with integrity that oozes from every pore.

    Heck ya!.....lol.....

    All the people in this planet who strive for improving themselves and others....for ethically conducting a life worth of something...gentle and caring but also fiercy against injustices...
    One day at the time.....doing most of the time just ordinary things.....

    hi destiny.
    i think each person are extraordinary in specific ways, ordinary in other ways, and less than mediocre in still other aspects.
    the extraordinary can be positive (we sure hope so!) but can also be negative (we hope not!)

    me? extraordinary?
    why, thank you for the kind words, ma'am.
    maybe that's because i've always tried to follow my mama's gentle admonition to finish everything on my plate before i leave the dinner table.

    you and dauntless are extraordinary in love and family, that's what i'm sure of in my mind.
    (oh june, o june is fast approaching... :-)

    ginger, you are probably the most extraordinary woman i've never met.
    i'm saying that without a smiley, or a lol.
    and today isn't even your birthday.

    An ordinary person - who posseses something "extra" is an "extra ordinary" person.
     
    Now, that something "extra"   is what sets him / her apart from the rest of us.

    I think it is what a person gives out to the world.. to the people he/she comes across.. thats what makes them ordinary or extra-ordinary.. some people give more than they need to.. thats special.
     
    The egyptians used to believe that your quality of afterlife depends on how many people remember you after you die and how well they do. So basically its the life we lead in relation to the people involved in it that makes us extra-ordinary.

    An extraordinare person I feel is somebody who has a presence....who has a way of drawing others out of their shells just by being who that person is. I'd describe an extraordinary person as someone who shows their vulnerability as a human, yet in all of it you sense the immortality of that person....their soul. Who realizes that we are not here to compete against each other, but to live peacefully, enjoy life to the fullest and leave our marks way after we've departed.
  • fromtheheart said on May 10, 2009....

    For me we are all created equally... but there are people who stand out in some ways because they took time to search for those hidden talents that have entrusted to them… to develop it and mold themselves to share it with others… those are the extraordinary ones…
