I love this quote because it reminds me to that it’s okay to just be me.  We’re bombarded by TV advertisements, magazine articles and social media posts full of ways to improve our diets, our looks, our jobs, our lives.  Sometimes I just need a reminder that it is okay to be myself.  I do beieve improvements are good; but it can be difficult to find the correct balance.

I think it’s important to live life without being so wrapped up in trying to be what the world expects.  That being said, I haven’t found the magic answer on how to easily balance the two; but I am continually working toward that goal.

What About You?
Do you ever feel like you need a reminder that it’s okay to be you?  How do you find balance in your life?

Yes, it’s Friday.
Note — I realize I’m posting this week’s Thoughtful Thursday on Friday.  Sometimes life is just life and things don’t go exactly as planned.  And that’s what happened to my week.
