- I'm back! So this one came to me a couple of days ago and I figure I'll write about it. You hear it from everyone. 'Just be yourself, just be yourself, don't pretend to be someone else just to impress others around you, etc.' Well, that takes alot of self-confidence to just be yourself, throwing that habit of worrying what people think of you constantly, to the wind. Well, I did it, and for the first time since 4th grade, I have alot of friends! I speak my mind when I want to, am loud and obnoxious sometimes, but have managed to attract more friends as I am.
- Zane, thanks for the idea! 'Looking a gift horse in the mouth' is just like 'straight from the horse's mouth'. Somebody gives you a free horse? Well, its not terribly polite to check it's teeth to make sure it's as old as the previous owner claimed. Thats like... getting a present for your birthday, then asking for the reciept so you can check how much it costed.

I believe we are all ourselves, in most situations. You are an all being living being. Whatever your portrey is real. Sure you may call people a fake, yet if that's what they wish to be and they attempt to show it, how is this faking anything? It's who they want to be, even if it's difficult to accomplish for them. Sure, you have some people that go along with the masses. Yet, that's what they want to be. Thus, they're not phony. I'm rather bohemian, so I suppose the real idea to tell yoruself is, "express yourself as an individual." All of us should share a set of agreements as a group of people, and differeniate ourselves in whatever means. There's some people that are total clowns and are unable to take seriously. Such as people from suburbs shouting they know the ghetto. They may want to be a part of the ghetto community, however they won't truly belong. They should show their respect for said culture, however to flaunt what they are not is the true lie.
With all said, to be yourself is to be comfortable in your flesh. At whatever cost, find this tranquility and obtain it. Even if by public standards you're a fake.
