Don’t Be Afraid To Stick Out
Don’t be afraid to STICK OUT.
Your life wasn’t meant to be like everyone else’s. It is yours after all! Don’t let people or the media intimidate you into being like them or what they want you to be. Be the brightest crayon (or colored pencil) in the box or the loudest laugh in a quiet room.
We all want to be ourselves but sometimes, just sometimes, we’re afraid of others will think. Today is the day we embrace the difference, we fall out of line and march to the beat of our own drum and stop compartmentalizing everything.

Full disclosure: this picture was so hard for me to take… I wanted to push that pencil back in line with the others ;)

This is a great reminder —- one we can all use – kids and adults. Sometimes we tell our kids these things but forget to follow our own advice. Thanks for being that little bird who told me.
I can completely understand! I’m reminding my own mom of things she taught and told me and getting her to live by them now.
It is so important to BE YOUrself in a society that tries to mimic someone else. We should all have the self-confidence to stick true to who we really are :)
YES!! Thank you for agreeing!
