Beautiful Self

“To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay)

When counseling young people I share the root of this quote quite often. It is important to be who you are and to accept yourself rather than be accepted by others while wearing a mask. Your true nature cannot be long hidden. When we learn to accept ourselves we then can accept others for who they are. Today, I choose to love and accept myself. 

Blessings of Peace and Love,
