just be you...

I'm just trying to find my place in the world; drifting from sea to sea. Sinking and floating to shore. But it's okay because I know when the time is right, I will be able to fully embrace my purpose in life. Everything comes with time. The important thing is to stay true to oneself. The beauty of life, in my opinion, is authenticity. There is nothing more attractive than someone who is confidently true to them self. We all have quirks and things that make us different from the majority of people around us. Every flaw is a new trace of beauty.
You have every reason in the world to be confident in yourself. You are special and there will always be someone who wishes they were more like you in some way. Be happy. Find the good in every situation. Be calm. Learn from others and from experience. Find the remedy for sorrow and discontentment, because the remedy is different for everyone. Never try to change anyone, because we are all on different paths in life with a different journey in front of us. And remember, you don't own anyone an explanation for the way you are. If they question you and advice you to change then they are not meant to be in your life.

just be you...

This is very good, I think everyone needs to hear this from time to time. I needed it today because I have been getting down, but everything happens for a reason and I have to remind myself to be thankful for all that I have and to remember to be myself and not try and change anyone because we are all on different paths and things happen differently for all of us like your piece says.

Great Job

Sounds cool. Since I am a new writer around, I may not have looked too deep but it looks just right. My suggestion would be that you write a book on self-help; you can do it. Be yourself there too ;)
