Being Our True Selves

“You have the freedom to be yourself, your true self, here and now and nothing can stand in your way.” -Richard Bach

All of us can relate to this- everyone wants to be himself or herself, with no pretending, masks or filters. Yet, we often hesitate in letting the ‘true us’ show. This is because we do not accept ourselves just the way we are, we are also afraid of being judged by people. All of us want to be liked and admired by our peers. So, we put on a façade of perfection and pretend to be someone we are not.

What we don’t realize is that we need to love ourselves before anyone else can love us. We need to embrace ourselves with our flaws and imperfections. Each one of us is imperfectly perfect. We are all unique. Just like the fingers of a hand, all of us are equally important and have a different purpose in life. We shouldn’t try to blend in when we are born to stand out. Let us be our own kind of beautiful, let us be our own stars.

Nothing can stand in our way of being our true self, but only if we have the courage to take the first step. The first step on a long and beautiful journey of self-love and self-discovery. So, today, here and now, let us be the flawed but brave, unique and magical individuals that we truly are.

Have the courage to let the true you, with no filters, show

Be natural, throughout your highs and lows

And you’ll see, the world will embrace the real you

Be ready, for you will feel love for yourself, pure and true
