"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest achievement" - Ralph Waldo Emerson
It's hard to be REAL in a culture that is constantly dictating how we should look, act and live in order to be enough, so often stripping us of our worth and value... BUT it is even harder to live as someone else, to not be free to express who we really are, to hide our true selves, to wish away our identity, to let others determine our worth and value.
Choosing to be REAL each day, yes can be a challenge, but also has the greatest reward.
Remember today, that if you are choosing to be REAL, it is a battle we're fighting, so it's ok when we stumble and fall, just dust yourself off and try again. A battle worth fighting and definitely worth celebrating! You've got this!
Shout outs to everyone choosing REAL - what an incredible, life-giving achievement! x
