Be Who You Are

You are unique and special don’t ever forget that.  Your life is special, unique, and meaningful. You have a special purpose on this planet. It may not be some type of superstar status by the standards of this world but I guarantee you are a superstar to someone.

It’s terrible to see people who never get comfortable with who they are. They flounder because every time they see someone who is successful they try to be like that person. While it’s great to learn from and emulate the positive characteristics of others, we still have to be who we are. If you’re loud, be loud. If you’re quiet, be quiet. But learn to love yourself. Life is too short to get up every day and not like who you are. And remember, the quickest way to get your mind off yourself is to do something for someone else. Peace.

1 Peter 5:4-7(The Message Translation)
But all of you, leaders and followers alike, are to be down to earth with each other, for—

   God has had it with the proud,
   But takes delight in just plain people.

 6-7So be content with who you are, and don’t put on airs. God’s strong hand is on you; he’ll promote you at the right time. Live carefree before God; he is most careful with you.
