Be Who You Are

Be Who You Are.
Be as genuine as you can be to yourself and in front of others. Pretense will only ensure you will accumulate what is really not yours and put you where you do not really belong.
Rumi says, "Appear as you are, and be as you appear". This is the most genuine way of living.
Your outward behavior should be directly in line with who you are inside. Fail does he who tries to manipulate his behavior in order to obtain approval from others, or to look anything other than what he truly is.
If you are unsatisfied with your habits and behavior, find the source of what is causing this and change accordingly.
