The disguise we all wear 

The veil we all quiver behind 

Why? 

Why do we all shake at the thought of revealing who we are within? 

Is it society? Our colleagues? The fear of rejection? 

Or maybe we have held this façade for so long that we don’t even realize it exists.  

Remove it. Its your time.  The curtain is drawn and the stage is lit. 

Step 1:  Acceptance 

Accept who you are 

Embrace yourself 

You are you, no one can take that away no matter what they do 

Your bubbly laugh, your quirky smile, the hop in your step. Keep talking with your hands and biting your nails.

Carry yourself with delight, satisfaction, confidence 

They don’t like you? Fuck 'em. Who needs 'em 

Find the people who care for you most 

Cherish them 

These are the only ones who matter 

Don't worry about the sideways glances from petty fools, the slick comments or scoffs of disbelief. 

Do not concern yourself with things so insignificant  

You are you. You are unique. You are beautiful. You are indispensable. One of a kind 

You have an infinity inside of you.
