WHY BE SOMEONE ELSE???



Ever really thought of how STRESSFUL it can get trying to be someone else when you ought to be yourself? It is one of the most demanding challenge that can ever be met up to.
     
      Why be someone else when you were made to be you? Why act like someone else,talk like someone else,eat like someone else or even try to exhibit the character of someone else? I am not saying you shouldn't admire people though and love what they do and how they do it,and even want to emulate them. The point I am trying to make is; NEVER CHANGE WHO YOU ARE BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BE THEM- simple .

      However it may look or tend to appear,those people you would trade everything (including yourself) to be like, have hidden problems they do not share to the general public or even to you in person. We've all got hidden stories;theirs might have triggered them to becoming what they are. Therefore,trying to be like them or live like them simply means you are living their personal stories when you ought to be living yours.

       Still wondering why your close friends can't stand you for long,why your relationships don't work out either and why you can't get that job you've always wished for? I will tell you the plain truth( even if it might not sink in well enough). Reason is,they all know you are faking to be someone else and no body wants to get involved with someone that cannot be real and love themselves for who they are.

        There is a huge difference between you admiring someone and you living like someone else. Why be someone else,when you can be yourself in a very unique, different way. Be you,talk you,eat you,laugh you. The World is too busy to keep hanging around fake people (we've seen enough already). So get real,and get busy turning yourself into someone you would also admire,and only then would you get the respect you've always craved for.

  1. Well said Vickie, well said. Everyone has different Phases of their life, and you only see or listen to the level which you're permitted to, so you trying to live someone else's life would end up making you own life full of regrets.

  2. Sometimes people dislike you for being the only person you can be perfectly... YOURSELF!!
    So all the more reason to fake it up till you make it...
