BE YOU!

The best thing in this world is being yourself, which most of us don’t do. We live for society. We think beyond the reality. We complicate life. We are finally not the own us.

We in places forget honesty, loyalty and reality just to show off people that we are significant. There is always a battle between the real you and the fake you. It is the biggest challenge that is kept inside you. I kept asking my peers in quite a normal way. Why people are always below the honest board? Most of them said me, “I always tried to tell the truth but I understood that, it isn’t always the best way. There are times where we must avoid being entirely truthful, or even tell a lie, in order to protect someone’s feelings, or prevent a conflict”. This trend is growing more and more every day.

The reality is always the reality. It can’t be changed. If your father is a farmer, yes that’s the reality. I keep seeing people who feel odd to tell what their parents do. The inferiority complex that penetrates in them, while others tell that their father is a manager or a business man or an engineer. Everything is a profession. Without farmer, cobbler, cleaner, driver or a high class business man, this world doesn’t function.

Once in my friend’s class, a staff was asking about every student’s passion. Everyone gave some answer. May be real, may be fake! It was my friend’s turn and she indeed said, I still have no idea of what I am going to do and immediately that teacher blasted her with lectures. But still, that was an honest answer and next time when someone asked her, she came up with a fake answer. The honesty of being yourself is lost somewhere by these such experiences.

Be you, because there are people who just love you for who you are. Everything in this world changes. I have always loved this line, “The changes are the only changes that never change”. Even your friends might walk away from you. It’s not that they should always stay with you. It doesn’t really mean that they are bad, it’s just their part in your story is over. You still have to be yourself.

The word ‘YOU’ is always capacious until it’s the real you. Because you are the one who should love, accept, value, forgive, trust and empower you before others do. I always admire the innocence of small children. The way they do what they wish, innocent talks, selfless moves and ever cherishing smile. Every matured liar was once an infant. We always wanted to go back to our childhoods just to be ourselves and nothing more. It’s always better to ascertain before it’s too late.

Few people for sure are going to hate you and break you. But how strong you stand is what makes you. This is a place where most of us gets influenced by the negativity and become the falsehood. The mentality of Mendacity every time will make you nether.

Good changes are always important in life to move forward but by changing the base nature of yours will lead to ruination and an unfavorable reputation. You change yourself and keep acting as a fraudulent yourself but that’s really not going to aid you. At some point you will surely end up missing you.

When others laugh at your honesty, let them. When others criticize you for your real you, let them. Take it as a good criticism. You `are not going to lose anything with their unhealthy words. Once you take it, you are not going to possess yourself.

Every ending is a beginning of something new. Let’s end our FAKISM and try bringing the REALISM out to live happily. Dress, speak, walk and eat in the way you want. Let’s not change these basic manners of ours for others. Because this will enhance to sort our higher version stuff’s by real ‘YOU’.

Be the real you, it’s always interesting!
