yes, being yourself is a challenge. This is a challenge that must be conquered because became the others man just turn off the self-potential and your ability. "People will never achieve success if only following the shadow of great man"

I don't think so. World don't make you like everyone. Only you do that. As me, the biggest challenge of life is loving other persons like ourself.

Hi lienrose! You're quite right. It is very difficult to be truly one's self when you are in the midst of situations where you want to fit in, or want to please others, or want to be accepted by others no matter what, and many other everyday instances. We become mirror of others that we become confused with who we really are in the process. To be true to one' self could mean being different, not conforming, being unique. And this is difficult especially where we are always told to conform or risk alienation. Needs real courage. But it is a challenge and could be rewarding if one succeeds. Cheers, lienrose.

hmnn, yes it was, but you've got to stand for what you really are...it's not easy but it's being free to be yourself is all worth the pain and the dejection you might feel in the process...find yourself, then you'll find your happiness...
