You must betrue to yourself.Strong enough to betrue to yours

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of authenticity and self-acceptance. To be true to oneself requires both strength and bravery, as societal pressures often seek to mold individuals into something they are not. It encourages individuals to be wise enough to have the courage to embrace their true selves and not succumb to external influences. By doing so, one can shape themselves from their authentic essence, acknowledging and embracing who they truly are rather than conforming to societal norms or expectations.
