Perhaps its not about learning to be the best you that you can be. perhaps such an endeavor isn't really possible... its very possible that in putting too much effort in such a self search one can rob themselves of the possibility of reaching it. Rather perhaps We should take deep lung filling breaths instead of shallow thoughtless ones, truely take in the flavor of every day and appreciate life. Not for what we wish it was, not for what it can one day/ possibly be. But simply as it is. take in deep thoughtful breaths and really COMPLETELY appreciate Life for the magical thing that it is.
Perhaps life is always magical in one way or another, it simply takes the eyes of one who wishes to see it.
