There is nothing you will ever do that is more important than being honest about who you really are.
If you can't be real and firm with others about who you really are, you will be doomed to a phony, plastic bullshit existence, where you only live for others.
If you can honor yourself and be real about your discomfort and pain, then your happiness will be just as real.
A moment of truth is very powerful. Instead of smiling to be polite, just frown. Instead of laughing when you are nervous or uncomfortable, just speak your truth. Instead of acting like everything is alright, proclaim it isn't alright, and talk about your feelings! Honor your truth. Honor yourself. Be real.
In a world of sleepwalkers, an awakened mind is a teacher and a catalyst for new awakenings, whether they want to be or not.
Witnessing honesty frightens some people because they haven't known authenticity in their own life.
You have to do some thinking and know who you are, and then you have to resist compromising your truth for the comfort of others.
You are lost because you have not been honest with yourself, and your life is largely unexamined and unexerted.
If some people came into contact with anything real they would be shocked out of their minds.
We fake perfect, so others don't have to experience any unpleasant realities, because their life is just as fake as ours.
