on being yourself

As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.
- Goethe

When you are content to be simply yourself and don't compare or compete, everybody will respect you.
- Lao-Tzu

Healing may not be so much about getting better as about letting go of everything that isn't you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are.
- Rachel Naomi Remen

When you are not trying to become anybody else, when you accept yourself, then you simply relax into what you are, . . . and grace and harmony and splendor arise . . . the tremendous beauty of being yourself.
