Being yourself

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
~Dr. Seuss

  1. Be the person who you are in life and don't stress yourself out trying to be someone that you're not. Life is to short for that. The people who wants you to " put on a mask" the rest of your life is the people who aren't important to you. Those people are the ones you need to shake off. The people who are important to you are the one who accept you for who you are, ane those are the ones you need to keep in your life.

  2. This to me is aying that you shouldnt be afriad to say how you feel and express yourself.Being who you are the things you say and how you feel shapes your character.That you shouldnt care what anyone else thinks about you as long as long as you are being yourself.There is nothing worst then being fake so be true to others and yourself.

  3. This quote means that you shouldn't try to be others. Always be yourself. Others are going to talk but they don't matter. What do matter is you being yourself and no one else. If they was your true friend then they would want you to be yourself and not try to be others. Those are the people that matters. The people who don't matter are the people who talks about you behind your back. Everyone has a different character. Its not hard to be yourself.

  4. This quote means that you should say what is on your mind whenever because you might not get a second chance for that oppurtunity to say it again. Also, always be yourself and don't try to be something that your not. Express yourself and say what you want to say because the people who mind don't matter because it is your opinion.

  5. What this quote means to me is that do what you want and how you want to do it. You have to be yourself at all times no matter what it is or whos around. If you be yourself and get judged than those people around you dont matter and should'nt be apart of your life. If you speak how you feel and your accepted than those are the real important people in your life.

  6. I think it means dont try to be what other people want you to be, just speak your mind and say what you feel. People who criticize what you believe in or what or how you feel dont matter in your life. But those who try to help or take you for how you are can make a big difference in your life.

  8. What this means is that be who you want to be and let people know who you are. If you don't your bound to just be another face in the crowd. Know and believe in yourself that you know where your life you is going. Others may not care who you are but at least you would know and the ones who care about you, will know you for who you really are.

  13. What this means to me is that you shouldn't change for anyone else you should be yourself because life is to short for you to be pretending to be something your not. Your TRUE friends will not care how you are they will accept you just for being you and not hiding the real you,but others will judge you for actin the way you act and for you actually trying to express yourself

  14. Be yourself at all cost because that what your are being judge by. When you re being yourself the people you hang with don't have to worry about you being something that you are not. It good to be yourself because you showing or expreesing the true you. You are not hiding anything from nobody and you.

  16. Be yourself, you shouldn’t have to change for anyone. If someone is trying to change the way you are then they are not meant to be a part of your life. You shouldn’t care about what people say about you. People should be able to except the way you are if you really mean something to them. Don’t change for anyone. You should only change if that’s something you want to do.

  17. This quote is saying that you should be who you want to be and be who you are, because the people in your life that care for you would except you for you and the people that are talking about you don't matter so you shouldn't mind them.

  18. What this is saying is that dont stress yourself trying to be like someone else because its not worth your time. Being yourself is the best girft you can have. If you care about what other people think you then you should be ashamed of yourself for being indecisive. You are you no matter what happens. I love to be myself. I dont care if people dont like me for being myself. If you dont like me for me then you dont like me at all.

  21. This quote is saying always express your true self. Never let anyone or anything change who you are. Being original is always better than acting like someone else. The significant and successful people in the world don't care what people think or say about them. They don't waste their time on such pety and immature things.Those who do very seldom amount to anything. -Danielle Pickens 3rd Hr.

  22. The people who matter in your life love you for who you are and that doesnt change no matter what and the people who are not in your life are not in it for a reason... which is because they dont matter.. Katherine Gonzalez

  23. Dont change yourself for anybody! Be who you are no matter what. If someone has your best interest at heart then it won't matter. On the other hand, if someone wants to change you then they dont love you for you. Follow your dreams and your real loved-ones will be there.

    I would agree that this means that we should never try to be someone we're not because if you have to pretend, then that person mostlikely dont like you they like the person your trying to be.

  25. This quote is telling us all to just be happy with who we are. Even though we should be reaching out for more. We really shouldn't be satisfied with living the wrong type of life. Our lives should revolve aroung *GOD*, who is the head of our lives. But we shouldn't always speak what we feel becuase our feelings really don't matter, in God's eyes. He's focused on our hearts. And the Word says be slow to speak, quuick to listen and slow to wrath. So we should listen to the Holy Ghost, and if you don't feel or have it, then you need to get it.

  27. When you know who you are and what you believe, it doesn't matter what people have to say. Only the people who stand with you matter and will support you.

  28. This is basically sayin be who you are and dont change because of what someone says. People who judge you are sometimes jealous and you shouldnt pay any attention to them and those who dont judge you want whats best for you.

  29. Say whatever you want to say and do whatever you feel ,because you are your own person. Those who disapprove of your outlook on life can go get one.We are who we are and no one person should try to change another person. Through life we will have people who are willing to ride or die with the choices we make and those who are willing to ride with us are the ones whose opinion we should care for the most.

  30. To me this quote is saying that we should be ourselves.. Never hold back what you have to say and always speak your mind because at the end of the day those that are really there for you will continue to be there. So never let anyone tell you that your thoughts shouldnt e heard.. Be confident in all you do and say.

  31. I believe this quote is somewhat self-explanatory. When having true friends, they don't care whatever it may be that is on your mind. Those who pose to be your friends will always have something to say when reguarding how you act or how you feel.

  32. This means that if the people that have a problem with your honesty, then you should really let them people go out of your life because they really have no place. Real friends don't mind your honest opinion or what you have to say.

  33. Dont be afraid to speak your mind. Dont worry about what others may think or what they may say. Others shouldnt matter to you. YOU is the only thing that matters. So speak your mind; dont bite your tongue.

  34. What I get from this is be who you are and say what you tell.Don't try to change or be different for any one. Real friends will like you for who you are. And wouldn't want to any. And thats how we should look at things and way we should be.

  36. You are who God made you. Be proud of that. I used to be ashamed of who I was because I didn't fit in but I realized that's who I am. If anybody doesn't like me then they're not good friends anyway. You have to believe you are special first. After that people who like you for you will just find you.

  42. This quote means to be yourself and don't let anyone bring you down. Some people say they care about you when they really don't because they go talk about you behind you back. But those people who do care about you they will be there for you no matter what through thick and thin.
