Do you know what you are truly great at? 

Being you! 

There is not another you on the entire planet. 

The way you laugh, dance  or tell a story -- that is all yours. 

The things people call flaws are yours too.  So what if I sing off tune or can't remember all the words?  First thing I do every morning is sing because it makes me happy. 

All those years of trying to be like everybody else was  just an act.  Putting on the act only attracts people who want the performance and that's an exhausting way to live.  When you live the act, you have to get away from everything to find yourself and reboot; only to lose pieces of yourself once again when you return to your daily life.

I really wish someone had talked to me about just being me at 12 years old or 16 or 25. 

It is never too late. 

Today, I will be me and you can be you.  

This is your life -- LIVE it!

Ways to Strengthen Your Core:

1.   Know who you are
2.   Be with people who are kind
3.   Find ways to grow and expand your interests
4.   Tell someone if you are being bullied

I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

Marvelous are Your works, 
And that my soul knows very well.

Psalm 139:14
