Love Yourself
This day and age everyone is trying to be like everyone else. What people sometimes forget, is that you were created to be an original. Without these original geniuses, where would the world be:
- Charles Dickens had MAJOR OCD, but still managed to produce wonderful works of literature that we enjoy even today.
- Albert Einstein had a developmental speech disorder when he was younger, but turned into one of the most brilliant minds in our country.
- Sigmund Frued struggled with addiction and depression, yet he had some brilliant ideas in the field of psychology. (Some, not so much unsure emoticon )
- Ben Franklin often started his days with an 'air bath' (stood in front of an open window without clothing), was a drunk, and a womanizer, yet he is one of our founding fathers.
- Nikola Tesla despite the fact that he had OCD, and later became obsessed with the number 3, he made major breakthroughs in radio, robotics, and electricity.
- Vincent Van Gogh suffered from severe depression, alcoholism, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, but today his creations are still in high demand.
Why did I mention this group of brilliant individuals? Simple. The world today says in order to be famous or a success, we must look and act a certain way. While during their time, these guys may have not had the best reputation, the world has definitely changed, and been made a better place because they decided to be who they were created to be. Who are YOU created to be? Are you being yourself, or what the world thinks you should be?
God created you for a purpose. You were created to deliver the gift He created in you for a reason. First, though, you MUST learn to love yourself. Love the gift He gave you. And, be brave enough to step up and share it with the world!
