Be You, Or Who Will?

 

 

Hello everyone! I know what you're thinking, the question that is burning through your mind. WHERE HAVE I BEEN? Well, alas, I am back! After collecting three pages of notes on my phone of all the messages and ideas that come to me daily; I decided it's time to put pen to paper. Or...fingers to the keyboard more like it.

 

So what is the message today

Simple..

YOU!

We live in a media driven society. We are always connected and looking at something or someone. I find that it is easy to go into complete overload with all of images, ideas, and how other people are living their lives.



Warning: The following sentence may blow your mind

 

The media and social media are the biggest lies told everyday. Yep, that's right I said it. The media portrays the ideology of perfection that no human being could ever obtain. They sell it and unfortunately we often buy it. But the other lie that plays into our lives is that of SOCIAL Media.

 

Who has ever gone down their News Feed and thought, "Wow, look at that person's life. Looks like they really have it together." Yeah, no, that actually isn't the case. While people can have good lives and post happy things it doesn't mean that they have perfection or even more than you. Don't let social media fool you. Everyone is rushing to work, cleaning up our disaster of houses, spilling coffee on our pants and rushing around like mad people.

And you can overcome anything in life if you commit to doing one thing, every single day. Being you. Being yourself. Because guess what? Everyone else is already taken. In this crazy world we live in, we need to find the way for us to be authentic and ourselves. Without that we will become lost and not know where we stand.

 

We all have come to this world with a purpose; a message to share with the world. Everyone is completely different and unique to them. That's what we need to stay committed and focused on. With the crazy weeks and hectic stresses of life we can often wonder to ourselves, "Where do I fit in? What am I even doing here?" Trust me, I have the same thoughts.

 

But no matter how hard it may seem or how tiresome your journey is, you DO have a purpose. You have something inside you that no one else in this world has. You have a special message, designed in a way that only you can say or give to the world.

 

This could sound cliché to you but it is the utmost truth. But just reading it on this screen is not going to be enough. You truly have to accept the authenticity that lives inside you. For you to truly believe that even though you may not see it, you may not know how it can be but that you DO have something to offer this world.

 

So this week, if you feel like you're getting lost in the stress of life, say this to yourself:

 

"I am here on a divine purpose and I have something special, unique and authentic to offer this world that no one else can."

 

Even if you don't believe it at first, fake it till you make it, and repeat that message until you believe it with all your heart. Because once you realize how powerful YOU are, is when the negative powers of this world can no longer touch you.

Have a great week all!
