Be yourself--
Why must we always want to be someone other than who we are? God made you as you are today to make a difference, not to become someone who you are not. You were born an original but so many of us die copies.



Why do we yearn so much to be like others, whether it's athletes or movie stars, we can't just be happy with the way we were made. We weren't mass-produced like the car you have sitting in your driveway. We were all designed by hand, every little detail picked out especially for us.



Weird nose? Oh, well. Why go change it? Odd talent? Rock that talent. Show the ward what you've got. Crazy hair? Find your own design! Don't change yourself to make others happy because the people who matter don't mind and the people who mind don't matter.
