I think we've all compromised ourselves at one time or another. Maybe you went along with the crowd or dressed a certain way or listened to a certain type of music.
We all want to be liked, to fit in; but at what cost? Is it worth losing ourselves in hopes of making friends or getting others to like us?
I think these type of things happen more specifically in adolescence; searching for acceptance or the right clique. It's too bad there wasn't a class that taught the coolness of being you.
You are the only 'You'. You are unique- there has never been another you nor will there ever be another you.
When you think about yourself in those terms...Man 'You' are pretty freakin cool, right?
If you've found that you lost yourself somewhere along the way or never really found 'You', spend sometime alone. Re-evaluate who you are and what it is you want out of life-what type of people you want to hang with-what type of clothes you want to wear. Don't be a people pleaser-f that, be your own 'You'.
Take time to enjoy you-you are a rockstar...even if no one else knows it.
Thought for the Day
We forfeit three-fourths of ourselves in order to be like other people.-Arthur Schopenhauer
