You Define You

Opinions, suggestions, and advice are abundant—let’s stop letting those energies define who we are.
The most actual path is the one guided by our heart-mind, not by the well-meaning voices of others.
Let’s choose to stop letting the paradigms of others shape how we see ourselves. 🦋
Deep within, we are beings of unexplainable, infinite light.
As children, we believed in our inexhaustible creativity and limitless possibilities.
Let’s discover that we carry unique, unparalleled gifts to share with the world.
But as we grow older, external influences—often tainted and distorted—start to take up too much space. These are not the truth of who we are.
Let this be your reminder:
✨ Only you know the truth of your character.
✨ Only you know what you’re truly capable of.
YOU ARE the love you seek in another.
YOU ARE the light that heals body, mind, and soul.
You are the one who defines who you are.
You become what you believe yourself to be.
So come back—
To the innocence of your mind.
To the wisdom of your body.
To the purity of your spirit.
It’s time to give yourself permission
to come back to yourself—
the one you feel,
not the one defined by another.

*”You once told me
You wanted to find
Yourself in the world –
And I told you to
First, apply within,
To discover the world
within you.
You once told me
You wanted to save
The world from all its wars –
And I told you to
First, save yourself
From the world,
And all the wars
You put yourself
Through.”*
— Suzy Kassem, “Apply Within”
