Being who you are, no matter where you are


Being yourself is all you can do and still be true to yourself. That sounds easy but in truth it will probably be the hardest thing you'll ever have to do. All the time you'll be tempted to shed, as if you can, yourself and be like another.

Why is being yourself hard to do? The world will be different and will take on various attitudes, or the world of people will do that, and they will look askance at your old habits, your differing thought patterns and will, in essence pass you by. How do you manage to hold on to your integrity among all the charades and play acting going on?

Be truthful and admit that you don't know something when you truly don't know,but also admit when you do know something, or at least believe until you've learned better, and you'll have no trouble internally by being yourself. Yet, if you fail to be happy with yourself and take on the facade of others, forsaking your own God given talents, you will find nothing but guilt and worry over trying to keep up pretenses.

Thus, it's far better to be yourself, for better or worse and learn how to live peacefully with yourself. Try it and see how happier you'll be.
