Our Own Way

Born to be ourselves, not to please the world

By Rohitha LankaPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

Born to be ourselves, not to please the world

Live life...in our own way

We were not born to always be liked by others.

But we were born to live our own way.

What others think is their business.

We just want to be ourselves, without hurting anyone.

In this life space, we want to choose our own path.

Be happy in our own way, no need to be like anyone else.

Don't let other people's words extinguish the fire in our hearts.

Because only we know what happiness is.

We were not born to be "someone".

But we were born to be "ourselves," truly.

    We are individuals, we should not let others dictate our lives. So true.

  • Be yourself and shine bright—there’s no better way to live! 🌈
