Be You ! Not Who People Say You Are!

Something I have noticed a lot in today's media is... there is a constant pressure to look and act like the (shallow) models and celebrities that we see everyday in Magazines,Movies,TV Shows, and SO MUCH MORE! Why is it that we are not influenced by amazing women like...Allyson Felix ,Carla Bruni-Sarkozy,Mother Teresa, Coco Chanel and Several others?!  Why is it that instead of the media building up our self confidence, they are always telling us what we need to fix or change about ourselves in order fit in and  be with the latest fad? I know that if we would just stop and think about these questions for a minute we would come up with a handful of reasons why we let the media define who we are or who we want to become.

I believe one of the main reasons why we have allowed this unfortunate outcome in our lives is because... it is truly hard to stand out and be who you are in a world of constant comparison and ridicule if you dare to be different or original. So I have a challenge for all who read this blog. Just Be You! Don't try to be someone that you are not. Don't Allow the media or even your friends and peers to dictate your life, and Especially...Do Not Allow Anyone to stop you from pursuing your dreams!  Remember God Only Made One You!  And You Are Simply Be-You-tiful!
