Be you. Do not change who you are. Do not try to be who you are not. If you do, it won’t work. It will make you even more miserable.

You are alive when you are you, when you have the courage to express yourself. Being you is NOT about trying to be like another person.

Being you is not about denying yourself love, greatness. Being you is not about impressing other people. Being you is not about enduring your life.

Being you is not about accepting what you are more than. Being you is not about settling for less. Being you is not about rejecting yourself.

Being you is not about faking your life. Being you is not about suffering in pain. Being you is not about treating yourself with disrespect.

Being you is not about ignoring your stories. Being you is about your struggles. It is about your weaknesses. It is about your strengths. It is about your stories. And it is about your journey.

Being you is accepting who you are, no matter what. Being you is having the courage to live your life, even when people don’t like the way you live your life. Being you is accepting your imperfections.

Being you is living your life, is enjoying your life, even when things are not perfect. Being you is about appreciating your life, no matter what you are going through.

And being you is about having the courage to face yourself, no matter what. It is having the courage to accept your life. Being you is about self-love, not about self-rejection.

The question is, ‘Do you have the courage to love yourself, to accept who you are, no matter what?

As always, when life throws hard balls at you, remember, You are more, not less!
