Be Yourself

Be Yourself

              If I had to change every time someone did not like my hair, or my dressing, or the way I talk, or the way I walk, or the places I go to, or the people I hang out with…, then I will not remember the real me anymore. The truth is society expects you to be a certain way, live a certain way; people expect you to be a certain way as well but u have a responsibility to be true to yourself. So I say “DON'T CHANGE SO THAT PEOPLE WILL LIKE YOU, BE YOURSELF AND THE REAL PEOPLE WILL LOVE YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE”. If people say they love you, then they should be able to accept every part of you. 

     

 I am not saying that you shouldn't work on the negative aspects about you; you should work on them on your own terms. If you are in are in a relationship and you have to act in a particular way each time your friend or partner is around to keep them impressed, then the relationship is fake. In a true relationship, you should not be so conscious about what the other person is thinking about you, If they are disgusted in you. I'm not saying you should be comfortable with bad habits. I'm just saying there are some things about you, some things that are part, of who you are, that can't be changed. Those who LOVE you should be able to accept those things about you.

“If you are trapped between your feelings and what other people think is right, always go for whatever makes you happy, unless you want everybody to be happy except you”. That sounds a bit selfish, it is. But hey, its ok to be. And remember, that's just my opinion. You can let me know what you think. Peace!!!
