"To Thy Own Self Be True"

Everyday we are faced with the obstacle of life. We wake up every morning and think of what life will bring our way.... a hurdle that could lead to achievement or one that will just create that little bit of chaos we need to snap us into reality when we fly away!

Most of us live for people, we give our souls and energy to please those around us. Sometimes, we have to, a wife, a husband, a parent or just that person who everyone relies on. It's just THEIR human nature.

We forget ourselves.. we lose our identity. Why? we don't give us time... thats what we have to change. Think of us, think of you... but is it possible to do that with out damaging the structure of life, without creating a hurdle for someone else to conquer?

An old friend once quoted "To thy own self be true"... she believed in individuality, in being unique. She didn't strive like most of us do to become unique... she just happened to be... a breath of fresh air, someone so different that she was so normal. A mold made for me to be friends with... but she too changed to fit everyone else's mold...

Life pushes us to be what we are, people say we can control it, but it isn't true, those hurdles, they are the moments in life that make you who you are... if they push you to forget who your are then that's that... that's who you'll be... patience is virtue...
