One of the most important lessons I have learned in life is always be yourself! Don’t pretend to be someone or something you are not just to make other people happy or like you. If the face you show to the world everyday is a mask, what truly lies beneath will forever vanish. When you spend too much of your time worrying about everyone else’s perception of you, or who everyone else wants you to be, you eventually forget who you really are. Don’t ever fear the judgments of others! You know in your heart who you so let that person shine!
