Whats there in 'Being YoUrSeLf'

My mother used to say that everyone in this world is born unique,with an originality in themselves but in course of growing up she always asked me 'to be urself'.Fair enough n quite true.i used to get confused.ws my originality fading off?
I wondered why my parents, after each n every single failure and even success asked me to be original.it seemed very silly to me at that tym.i tried finding out answer to this confusion.But now i realised to be natural is very much difficult.its not that easy thing in life.lord gave us one beautiful face but we ourself made various fake faces.For each and every friend and relative im different.I figured it out that i needed to suit evryone,i needed their love,their praises,their confidence thats why i trimmed myself.I got one face with different masks
and i became one among the millions.I'm not what i used to be,i hv changed.And i dont say im unhappy with such an attitude nor i say im happy.its just many a tyms i realise that I cudnt define myself.God created me otherwise and i changed myself otherwise.What if evryone in dis world remain original,dont die copy.I think things will go worse.I called up my mom,told her that your daughter has changed..she wasnt surprised,she talked to me as if she knew that it was going to happen.With a sweetness in her voice she explained me-No one like to change,its circumtances which change them.God wont understand how difficult it feels when u hate to hear your friend singing but just not to hurt her, u keep on smiling.She made me laugh on such a view of hers.
I dont know what i realised talking to her,just felt it was very natural.
To be yourself needs alot of confidence and clarity of thoughts what u want in your life And this thing hardly exists,believe it or not
Remember "Be yourself" is about the worst advice you can give people.Do wateva your heart says.
It was for all my FRIENDS,

luv u guys,
keep smiling,
Manali.
