I saw this pic on a friend’s FB and I just had to post. Sometimes we feel the need to try to squeeze ourselves into a mold, but why? Why do we strive so hard to be like other people? We need to break from this paradigm and release our true self and just be who we are. With all our talents, qualities, defects, abilities or disabilities. We have a place on this Earth and it is our birthright to be free and be happy.

The way I see it, is we all have a voice, a story to tell. Every living being is unique and precious, and as powerful like a dewdrop is part of the magnificent ocean. Let’s celebrate our differences; let us not fear to be ourselves. Let your inner light shine forth.

The Star Rise book series is all about standing up and not being afraid of who you truly are, and when you make this choice, you will see greatness arise from the ashes.

I leave you with this quote and I challenge you to dare to be different. I dare you to be YOU…and we can learn to see with different eyes.

“Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson
