Be Original, be Authentic, be True to Your Self

To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man. 
(William Shakespeare)

How much struggle, conflict and repressed aggressions are created because you aspire to be someone you are not. The man who looks up to the alpha male and wishes to be him, the girl who is envious of the prom queen. The man with a mission to be completed who runs away from life because he considers it too ugly to look at and becomes a monk instead. There are two stages to the homecoming journey. First understand who you are and get your mission completed oblivious to the journeys of the others. Then,  once you are true to your self, you will have a shot at being aware of the presence of the True Self since all the interferences are cut out of your life.
