The fundamental truth about ourselves has been hidden away from us.
That we could spend our lives passionately pursuing something that sets our souls and minds on fire and that doing that very thing might lead us to something extraordinary and possibly even world changing… That we could do and say whatever makes us feel good and alive no matter how different it is from what other people are doing or what other people think we should be doing…
These truths have been quietly sneaked away from us and swept neatly into a forgotten corner… and if you try to look over there they’ll tell you its dangerous. And if you decide to go look anyway they’ll tell everyone else that you’re dangerous. And if you just don’t give a fuck what they say about you.. well then you might actually change the world.
Be strange. Be weird. Be a freak. Be anything you want. Be brave. Be unafraid. Be ready to be scoffed at and be ready for others to find you unacceptable. You don’t need to be accepted by anyone except yourself inside your deepest and truest heart. Its tough for people to accept that someone could be so very free while they’re busy conforming. It threatens every choice they’ve ever made if they allow the realization in that they too could have been free.. that they could be free now instead of trapped where they are.
Its our choice. Each and every one of us is free to be free. The one who changes the world.. the one there will be books about.. the one who will do something brand new and become a hero is the person who does not conform. The one who breaks free and lets their most unique flag fly high. That person is YOU.
Today is yours.
