Be Yourself ...

"The easiest thing in the world to be is you.  The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be.  Don't let them put you in that position."
      Why be something you're not, just to please others?  WWJD?  ~nrl

"God has given you one face, and you make yourself another."  ~William Shakespeare
     That's how I feel about people who are addicted to plastic surgery!  ~nrl

"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else."  ~Judy Garland
      Unfortunately, I did this when I became a parent.  I thought I had to conform to be accepted as a mother and parent - and lost myself in the process, for many years.  ~nrl

"Learn to be what you are, and learn to resign with a good grace, all that you are not."  ~Henri Frederic Amiel
      With good grace, learn to accept yourself, in spite of others."  ~nrl

"The most exhausting thing in life is being insincere."  ~Anne Morrow Lindbergh
      I wish I could agree, but I feel in today's society, it's more exhausting to be sincere, the same as temptation is easier than not.  ~nrl

"Ride the energy of your own unique spirit."  ~Gabrielle Roth
      Without hurting or taking down others in the process ...  ~nrl

"Almost all absurdity of conduct arises from the imitation of those whom we cannot resemble."  ~Samuel Johnson
      What a mouthful.  So ... one hurt others instead if you feel you can't 'measure up'  ~nrl

"If you are ashamed to stand by your colors, you had better seek another flag."
~Author Unknown
      Life is tough enough without the separation of "colors" (whether referring to gangs, or race).  I don't like this quote because it reminds me of things like KKK, gangsta and gang rivals.  I feel we should all stand under the same flag - whatever country - and support each other.

"It's wonderful when you can bring sparkle into people's lives without fading away from your own true color (not flag). Keep the hue in you." ~Dodinsky, www.dodinsky.com
      I love this quote, especially the "hue in you" ... ~nrl

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."  ~Dr. Seuss
      Thanks, Doc!  ~nrl
