“Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

-Albert Einstein 

Remember when we were kids and we were good at being ourselves? As we grew old we gave relevance to what others said about us. I am just here to remind you to keep loving me.

Love who we are

While it sounds simple it is more complex as we keep growing. When we were young we dreamt and pretended to be what we wanted to be when we grew up. We never cared about what others said about our dreams because what we only needed was our imagination and enjoy.

We have arrived at an age where we listen more to the noise than to ourselves and asking us if this is really what we can give. Comparisson is within everything we do, think and say. Always seeing ourselves in disadvantage or inferior to someone else. We have stopped feeling proud of who we are because we have focused on finding who we are rather than living what we are: free to become anything.

We are an artist and we have to protect what we believe in. Celebrate every success no matter the size of it and recognize that there is always a positive thing that we can get out of the wrongs we make.

Forgive our wrongs

Punishing our value for a lost battle is something that just do not makes sense. Understand that errors are necessary for us to learn and get the best out of them. At the end all the dots are connected and it is our job to see it.

Do not be so hard on us, thoughts are powerful and the image we have about ourselves will affect our confidence. Be proud of failing, it represents progression and that we are preparing ourselves for greater challenges.

There are things in our life that still we have not dettached from. Life is a sequence of moments and it depends on us how we live them. Look back to our errors and all the negative thoughts and memories we have from them…redefine the meaning of them. We cannot always keep the bad taste of our memories. Instead construct a positive meaning for our experience, it will help us to keep lessons instead of demons.

I heard that there are only two times when we are good at being ourselves: when we are kids and when we are elders. Please do not let this happen to us, love who we are every moment of our life. I believe in you.
