Be You

For pretty much my entire life I’ve felt like an outsider. I’ve never really fit in anywhere. It did bother me in my younger days, but today I’m grateful to not have fit in. 

Fitting in means conformity. It means putting your values in second place in order to appease the masses. At a very young age I knew better than to listen to people who did not have my best interests at heart. Was I perfect at it, no, but I knew to be real while everyone else fell for the latest fad or flavour of the month. 

You know from birth who you are meant to be. Your challenge in life is to not get swayed from your purpose. It’s not an easy task to be true to oneself in a world where phoney is getting harder to detect. It’s okay to be the standout in the crowd. You’ll thank yourself for it later in life. <3
