BE YOUR OWN PERSON
How can you be anyone but yourself ?
When you are afraid to risk, you stop being your own person. Then you become the ward of anyone who will protect you.
Unfortunately, the person who protects you.....expects you to behave like the person they feel you should be. If you're afraid of being your own person....it means you are probably afraid of taking care of yourself or being on your own. Accept your independence and the loneliness that comes with it by being willing to go it alone....as your choice.
If you're afraid of being your own person....you're probably afraid of your anger. You feel you have to hold it in or else you might offend the person you depend on for your survival......or run the risk of being thrown out in the cold if you express yourself.
So you hold your anger inside until after a time it begins to turn inward and you hate yourself for being weak, inferior and not being your own person.
It's a vicious cycle....but you can never be trapped if you are your own person.
You may make mistakes but you are free to correct them.
You may hurt others, but you are able to apologise and deal with their rejection.
You may be hurt..........but you feel strong enough to love again.
Just do what's right for your. Find your life and live it.....express yourself.
If you cannot act in your own best interest......you cannot act in anyone else's.
