I had a dear friend in college tell me once,
"Be who you is, 'cause if you is who you ain't, then you ain't who you is."
Just be real. Be yourself. Be "who you is."
Life is too short to spend it being fake, or acting like you have it all together all of the time.
On the flip side, love people inspite of themselves.
Please, just be you.
Thanks.
Advice that I'm STILL learning how to take! "Putting up a good front" is a 25-year habit for me, and it's not easy to change! Thanks for the reminder. :-)
ReplyDeleteDr. King (a.k.a. King James =) said it like this recently to Adrian and I . . . The secret in life is to 1) find out who God made you to be and then 2)be free to be that person. I have been pondering over it for months, especially over #2. Love you Tam! and I am loving your blog!!
