“Below are some of my favorite quotes on Being Yourself. For a significant portion of my adult life, I was not happy with myself. I was actually being too hard on myself. But I did not realize until later in life, that not being myself caused a significant host of issues. In my case, I simply tried to please everyone to get them to like me, and found myself following the bad habits of the crowd, just to be accepted. Eventually I become wiser, but only after being banged up a few times. Today, I’m proud to be who I am. I only seek God’s approval.” – Kevy Michaels
