The real you is dying to burst through the clouds.
You have much to offer the world.
Break through; show the world your stuff.
Don’t be afraid; don’t worry about being accepted.
It’s time to stop trying to impress others with a false persona.
The time has come to make an impact on the world with the real you.
You are astonishing just as you are; you brighten the world.
You shine like there is no tomorrow.
Push your way through; live for today.
The real you is bigger than life.
Stop hiding and let the world see you.
Touch the world, warm hearts, radiate with all your might.
Always the real you must shine through – anything less will take away the light. Lovely words – yours always are.
Yes, it is the light within us that truly shines!
beautiful and just the encouragement I needed today.
Thanks, Joss. I needed it myself today.
Thank you for the pep talk SuziCate. As an introvert, it is easy for me to procrastinate and find other things to do; rather than risk others seeing a light.
I am a work in progress.
We are all works in progress. I always have good intentions but am slow to get things done…I’m a great procrastinator as well!
Lovely. Woke to find this in my email, just as I am making a push to finish a task I have been putting off for a long, long time. Thanks for the encouragement.
Me, too…trying to talk myself into getting on the ball!
Have gotten lots done today. I can officially say I quieted the beast. Now….to tame it.
Yay, you! I love productive days, especially creatively productive days.
You just put into words one of my greatest challenges…
I think many of us are challenged with shining as we are.
Definitely. You have to be yourself!
…and how you shine just being you, Vic!
Lovely encouraging words! Shine on, Suzi!
You too, Debbie!
Gorgeous photo, Suzicate! And even more stunning words! Wow!
Linda, you are a diamond glinting in the sunlight!
I love this post because it’s such a GREAT reminder to let ourselves shine!
Funny how some people feel that allowing their light to shine is ego, but in reality when we allow our light to shine, it’s allowing the light to shine that Created us!
Lovely photo, Suzi!
Happy Monday, dear friend….X
There’s a big difference from being egotistical and shining as you are…those who shine naturally don’t have to brag about it to be noticed! I love being around people who are so vibrant they seem to make everyone else come alive. I enjoy good energy! Happy Monday to you, Ron.
I can tell myself that until I’m blue in the face, and in writing, I’m me, me, me. In person, I am much more restrained and shy though. I hold most of the me back unless it’s family. Sad.
I find myself reserved as well unless I’m with family or close friends. I think we feed off the energy of one another. I wish I was more outgoing…
What a strong and beautiful post.
Thank you for sharing it!
Oh… And why did I happen to stop by? Because I liked your blog name.
Gentle hugs,
“Auntie”
Thank you for reading and commenting.
I’m glad you like my blog name…I’m kinda’ partial to it myself!
“Push your way through
Live for Today.”
Yes. So need this reminder everyday. Thank You.
Some days things fall into place and others we have to just push our way through…
Your words are so encouraging. It’s so much easier not to shine.
You’re right it’s easier because it takes courage to put our real selves out there.
Lately I’ve been working on allowing the ‘real me’ to show more often – I lack confidence when it comes to close family, who may have a fixed perception of me. I don’t wish to disappoint them and lose their love, I guess. So this is very encouraging, Suzi, thank you!
I think that was the hardest part about putting my writing out there…
You’re welcome.
Love it!
Thanks.

Your words of encouragment are just what I needed today. Thanks!
Glad you found the words you needed today and happy you found them here.
I enjoyed the splendor in your words. Beautiful writing.
Thank you, Marinela.
Shine on . . . you crazy diamond!
I tend to get a bit dull, but I shine when I can!
in your opinion,why human created?
Human created? What are you referring to? I’m sorry but I don’t understand your reference. If you’re referring to creation of the clouds etc…I believe in God and that He created the universe. If your reference is to human persona, just we are born with certain personality traits, but we have the ability to disguise us as who we want to be or who we think others want us to be. I’m not sure if this is what you’re asking is my opinion or not.
