Many people don’t do what they really want to do because they fear rejection, judgment or opposition by family, friends, or the groups they associate with. If you are not living the life you want, or doing something you want, don’t forget that others will come and go, but only you will be with yourself forever.

While it may be true that the more you begin to live out your heartfelt desires, the more opposition you will have to deal with, don’t forget, the flip side is that you will feel happier and your life will take on extraordinary meaning. Live your own life, and allow others to live theirs.
