Our Authentic Selves

Don't say "Yes" when you

feel like saying "No" 

instead of trying to please 

anyone and everyone 

just, let go of what is not yours 

don't entangle in others' dramas! 

Saying "Yes",  fearing disapproval 

is the worst thing that can happen

it is this fear of 'dislike' buddy 

that robs us of authenticity! 

Don't laugh at jokes, you do not enjoy

the lies, pretenses, false smiles

 prevent us from being 

our true  authentic selves 

Breathe the air of freedom 

to simply be yourself

what a pain, living a whole life time  

play acting, trying to be 'someone' 

other than our authentic selves!
