STAY AN ORIGINAL WORK OF ART
In this short lifetime, why not be true
to your own voice, your own story, your own truths, your own style, beat, and
drum? Why reflect the words, songs and march of another? Why not use your
soul's own unique language instead of constantly try to toot something not
true, suitable or intended for your own instrument, painting, song, or story? Why
create an image you cannot produce? And if you can create a brilliant mask, how
long will you really be able to hide your true soul behind it until its colors
and plastic begin to fade and melt with time?
Do not speak about truth when there
is no truth in you. Do not speak about being yourself when you are trying hard
to be someone else. Do not keep crying
about your pain when you have no shame creating pain in others. Do not step on
truth, or someone else's truth, or someone who fights for truth and think there will be no repercussions; for
there is more danger in silence, and for every action there will always be a
reaction of opposite or equal measure.
Treasure integrity. Treasure your
own story and truths. How will people remember you when you want to be an
imitation? How will people remember your voice when you want to sound like
another? Be so different that everybody
will remember you. Be yourself because an original is worth more than a copy. Be
true to yourself or your heart will never forgive you; for once you silence the
music from your own instrument, your true purpose and intended path will begin
to fade. There is no greater crime than ignoring your conscience and the truths
intended for you to live, learn, and share. So stay TRUE to YOU in everything you
do. That itself is the purest and truest art. -- Suzy Kassem
Why escape your intended purpose by copying and trying to be someone else? You will discover who you were meant to be only after you have shown confidence being yourself. -- Suzy Kassem
