Dare to be different

Time to get philosophical! Or poetic, I should say. I love quotes and sayings. And some of them makes you think more than others.

My first ever favorite quote was this; Be yourself, everyone else is already taken. When I first read it, I didn't know who it was quoted from, but later came to learn it's one of many great Oscar Wilde quotes.

At the time I was about 13, and for me, reading that every day - it meant a lot. It made me realize what should be so blatantly obvious to everyone; we are who we are, and we're all perfect, and we're all perfectly flawed. Our personality, and even our "flaws", is what makes us unique and different from everyone else. Embracing who you are, and everything that you can be, is truly the greatest thing you can do for yourself. Don't try to be someone else, or what someone else expects you to be or wants you to be. Don't try to be something you think you should be because 'just you' isn't good enough. Just be yourself. And even though that simple sentence might take a lifetime to learn how to live by, it will make that lifetime so much more special if you dare to try.
