Day 11: Daring to Be Yourself

Day 11: Daring to Be Yourself

“We have to dare to be ourselves, however frightening or strange that self may prove to be.”

― May Sarton

If I dared to be myself, I’m afraid… I would alienate the one I love the most. Every time I try to open myself, something goes horribly wrong.

If I dared to be myself, I’m excited… that I could actually be free. I'm so tired of censoring myself to avoid hurting feelings.

When I dare to be myself, it’s strange… to have that blossoming feeling in my chest. It's beyond butterflies in the stomach, more like them bursting from the chest.

When I dare to be myself, this kind of genius emerges… I feel like my best work is done when I'm completely myself.
