I want to live with Insides Out
Is ever too much Out in doubt?
If Authentic is whate’er I do
to match the man I am,
There’s still some In for you.
“Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.”
“If you trade your authenticity for safety, you may experience the following: anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addiction, rage, blame, resentment, and inexplicable grief.”
― Brené Brown, Daring Greatly
