Being Yourself

Commentary by Peter Shepherd
Being Yourself
“Don't chase people. Be yourself, do your own thing, and work hard. The right people, the ones who really belong in your life, will come to you. And stay.” ~ Will Smith
You don't have to be like anyone else, and you don't have to be like anyone else wants you to be. Your individuality is sacred.
“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Conform, do as you're told, we know best..." No, the best life is the one you enjoy the most because you retain your own values and remain focused on your vision, not simply aiming to meet others' expectations or to be loyal to values that are not your own. Conforming is the easiest path to take but that may not be the right thing to do and you are unlikely to be happy that way - your conscience will plague you. Because most people follow the path of least resistance, it tends to attract and gather the majority, creating enough social power and influence in turn to create enormous pressure on others around them to conform to the group's values. However, those who make the world a better place - that's you, right? - choose not to go down the easy route and do not compromise their integrity.
“The judgment of others does not change who I am. Quite the opposite is true. It reveals who they are..” ~ Terry McPhearson
People project their own feelings and motives onto others, especially when they are repressed in themselves.
“I think of life itself now as a wonderful play that I've written for myself, and so my purpose is to have the utmost fun playing my part.” ~ Shirley MacLaine
What's the name of your play? Mine's "Love Affair in France." And as Alan Alda said, "You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself."
“At bottom every man knows well enough that he is a unique being, only once on this earth; and by no extraordinary chance will such a marvelously picturesque piece of diversity in unity as he is, ever be put together a second time.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
We're genes and more than that; we're our upbringing, education, environment and circumstances, but more than that; we're a consciousness apart from materiality with aptitudes and qualities developed over lifetimes, but more than that; we're each a unique aspect of Life, of Love, of God.
