To be myself at all times!
Life has taught us that we should be who we are and be the best that we can be. Everything around us calls on us to be something else or somebody else. The Media influences us to be somebody else. The world of commercial is always eager to sell us this or that so as to feel good. The model world makes us believe that we are not good enough just being ourselves, that we have to look and dress in a certain way to be acceptable by Society. This has put a lot of pressure on our young ones and at times they have developed a sense of hatred for selves. Many young people have low self esteem due to what Society is doing to them. e.e. Cummings, the poet observed that "To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting." Can we stop fighting this battle? Yes we can! The only way to do this is to be the best of who God wanted us to be. We should be contented with who we are and check our diets. Go back to nature and follow life's lessons and you will be happy with the outcome. Be yourself for the God who created you loves you just the way you are. God is not ashamed of you so do not be ashamed of yourself.
