Stay true to yourself!

Whatever you do in life, make sure you are not chasing other people's dreams in the absence of your own genuine dream.

 When you give, make sure you NEVER remind people what you did for them, so that you get some respect or appreciation in exchange. Otherwise, what's the point of giving?

When you give, make sure you give with all your heart and expect absolutely nothing in return.

When you are in a relationship, make sure you are not the 5th wheel of the carriage.

When you appear as good and kind, make sure you are not wearing a mask. Nobody likes fake people.

When you are smiling, make sure you are not trying to impress anyone by pretending to be happy.

When you want to give a piece of advice, make sure you don't do it just to satisfy your ego or show off with your knowledge. Also, make sure that person really needs your opinion. Usually, people ask for a piece of advice whenever they need it.

If you truly wish to be happy, make sure you never bring your standards so low that you end up settling for a few crumbles they throw you now and then. Get out there and grab your own well-deserved complete creamy piece of cake or of love or of friendship or of whatever you want. Just make sure you do your best to have it and never take someone else's piece, no matter how tempting it might be sometimes.

If you want to stay true to yourself in this world full of fakes, make sure you don't boast here and there with other people's creations or achievements. Search inside your heart and you will find for sure plenty of inspiration sources and plenty of ways to make those come to light in the most beautiful shapes.
