"Be Weird. Be Random. Be Who You Are. Because You Never Know Who Would Love The Person You Hide." Okay, so I found this quote on a poster (above) and I have no clue who said it. Given the picture of the cat, it was probably a hippy. And that's okay.
As I have gotten older, I have found more and more to like about the hippy movement. Make love not war? I'm all for it! Equal rights? Yep, nothing wrong with that either. How about: Leave things better than you found it? That works for me also! Okay, so after that last paragraph you might ask: Well, aren't things okay?" Yes, and that's the problem. Being "okay" is not the same as being happy. But okay is not bad enough for anyone to care either! "Okay" means just more of the same shit. Which brings me back to the original quote. Don't pretend to be something you are not, or someone who is really the opposite of your nature. I would think that this will only end badly. Remember, people are drawn to people who are similar to them. If you pretend to be someone you are not, you will likely attract someone who is very different than who you truly are. Meanwhile, if you always act as you truly are, you are more likely to attract someone who is really like you, and who will love you for who you are. Or, of course, you could attract someone who is pretending to be like you truly are, which could also be a problem. In the end, honesty is the best policy. Be who you are. Be open to meeting new people and listen to what they say. Sometimes, it is easier to see with your ears and your heart. If you honestly want your life to be real, then don't be an illusion to others.
