Be Yourself Why would you want to be someone else When you could be better by being yourself Why pretend to be someone you are not When you have something they haven't got
Cheating yourself of the life you have to live Deprives others of that only which you can give You have much more to offer by being just you Than walking around in someone else's shoes
Trying to live the life of another is a mistake It is a masquerade; nothing more than a fake Be yourself and let your qualities show through Others will love you more for being just you
Remember that God loves you just as you are To Him you are already a bright shining star Family and friends will love you more too If you spent time practicing just being you by Ellen Bailey
Wise words. Each of us has something others don't have, each of us is a unique personality. I remember a stanza from "Right beside you" (Building 429): "We are precious More than priceless in our worth Loved by the Father Heaven's children here on earth."
We just need a little happiness to become perfect. Nice poem, dear poet, many thanks for sharing!
This is one's best quality, being yourself so people can see through you. I enjoyed your writing combined with the love of our Holy Father. Please keep writing quality words as other good poets share here their wisdom. Thank you for sharing.

"We are precious
More than priceless in our worth
Loved by the Father
