Are you Staying true by being your or someone else? For example in front of your friends, Coworkers are you putting on an act or being yourself?
Authenticity is not a thing for everyone. I’m pretty sure a large amount could not deal with being their true self. Letting others control what we are doing, wearing and etc. To me That’s not being who god has made you to be.
For Example one morning when i was getting dressed i had picked up some new shoes to wear cause at one point i was addicted to shoes. When i put them on i felt like this is not me anymore. Skateboarding and blogging is me. I love it, everything about it.
So i put the shoes back up and put on my skateboarding shoes. Doing something so simple changed my whole view about and brought a clearer understanding to who i truly am.
Are you being who you truly are? If so what are some ways you are able to be?

One way I am authentic is when someone has a big challenge in their life and I feel like I HAVE to go and help them in some way. I stop and realize I don’t HAVE to do anything. That is very freeing and then I get to see what I WANT to do.
Stay well,

I’m the same way. I used to be in a big hurry to help someone. But then i realized that they know how to handle it.
