“You will be criticised for what you are, for what you are not, and for what you are believed to be. You will be judged for what you do, what you don’t do, and for what you leave unfinished. You will be talked about for what you say and what you keep quiet. You will be singled out for your successes and for your mistakes, for your decisions and for your doubts. No matter how hard you try to please, there will always be opinions. So live for yourself, because in the end, the only thing that matters is to stay true to your own path”
It’s how I’ve lived my life for the last 25 years (even though I only just saw this quote last week) and how I will always live my life. If majority of today’s society can do the same, stop flocking to what others say and the divisiveness that blind followership bring with it, we may have half a chance!
We mustn’t all strive to be the same! nor try to please everyone….
