If you spend your time trying to become who everyone else wants you to be, you will be torn apart. There is no way to be perfect in a world with so many different opinions on the right way to be. If you want to feel whole, you have to live as who you believe you need to be.
Don't stress over being yourself. The act of being yourself is simply to be. Be without changing yourself for others. Simply be.
Simply be and let your being be happy.
RELATIONSHIPS & THE INNER BEING The other is a mirror of our own face; the other is a mirror of our inner being. The entire universe is a manifestation of our own inner being. Man is the microcosm and the universe is the macrocosm. In our inner being, we are one with all.True relationships is to see ourselves in all beings and to see all beings in ourselves. The inner being is not only present in human beings, but it is also present in flowers, trees, animals, stones and the stars. The divine exists everywhere in nature. Once we realize this we will never feel alone. We find the communion of the heart everywhere.

To share out your soul freely, that is what metanoia (a change of mind, or repentance)really refers to: a mental product of love. A change of mind, or love for the undemonstrable. And you throw off every conceptual cloak of self-defense, you give up the fleshly resistance of your ego. Repentance has nothing to do with self-regarding sorrow for legal transgressions. It is an ecstatic erotic self-emptying. A change of mind about the mode of thinking and being.
I wonder in what way I would function as a person, in a society without ever attending school. I'd be myself.
Ignite the light within you, it will make your world brighter.
They say the apple don't fall far from the tree but every apple has it own seeds
A person may learn things all their life, but never gain knowledge of truth.
When did the future switch from being a promise to a threat?
There's a freedom to being young that is harder to come by as time goes on.
Freedom lies in being bold.
Before I can tell my life what I want to do with it, I must listen to my life telling me who I am.
