Today you are....

Updated: Jan 21

It’s been said that comparison is the thief of joy. And the fastest way to be unhappy and kill something special is to compare it to something or someone else. We are endlessly comparing ourselves to others. Sometimes it’s about something a person is capable of doing that we wish we could do, sometimes it’s about material possessions, and sometimes it’s about the physical attributes that someone has that we desire.

 


Our world is constantly trying to divide and compare us by reminding us of how different we look, what we don’t have or what we can’t do. Social media has us comparing our seemingly average life to everyone else’s highlight reel. Stop comparing! You can’t compare the beginning of your story to someone else’s middle or end. And never let someone try and judge your story by the chapter they walked in on.

 

There is one thing that you’re better at than anyone else. and that’s being you. Don’t be afraid to be you; the imperfect, flawed, weird, goofy, beautiful, magical you. If you just be you, the world will learn to adjust. This is the only game you can really win. You’ll never win playing a game by someone else’s rules. And playing by someone else’s scoreboard is pointless and empty. You get one life. Play your own game. There will always be someone who has more than you and there will be someone who has less. There will always be someone with a better body, richer, smarter, or more attractive. But another person’s beauty is not the absence of your own. Learning to be happy with yourself gives you much needed freedom in a world that is constantly trying to change you into something you’re not.

 

We take the most important things in life for granted. And the most important things in life are measured internally. The most important things cannot be seen or touched, they must be felt with the heart. We only have so much emotional energy each day, so why not spend it fighting the battles worth fighting. But if it cost you peace, it’s too expensive.
