Stop trying to be someone else's idea of perfect.
Be your imperfectly perfect self.
Be You.
When they laugh at you for being different,
Laugh back at them for being the same.
The biggest challenge in life is trying to be yourself
in a world that is trying to make you like everyone else.
Don't be imprisoned by your imperfections - own them!
Embrace your uniqueness...
There is so much infinite beauty, originality and personality that you have to share.
Live right now and just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for any one else.
Don't compare yourself to others.
The only person you should try to be better than, is the person you were yesterday.

Oh wow Sam, we both just posts the same kind of thought, I just mentioned a little bit on mine about proud to be who we are. I've been telling all my friends, we all pretty as we are, we have our own unique of beauty. never compare yourself to others. I'm glad you posted about this, because the next generations or the young girl who read this. It will help them to stop themselves not compare to others. Thanks sweetie. Such a billions post Sam. Wish your week is wonderful so far.

I love the Friday Frill as per usual. Always inspiring.
The colourful tulle skirt is so pretty...I know that was not the point you were making :)
Sam, you always find the words that go straight to my heart! This is so true, particularly in the blog world, isn't it? We can get so caught up in comparing ourselves with other bloggers, thinking their lives are perfect, more beautiful / glamorous than ours, and ending up just feeling bad. I myself can be guilty of this, even if I'm battling it constantly. Comparison is the poison of our lives. I should definitely work on accepting parts of my life as they are, and stop beating myself for not being this or that. Thank you for the inspiration, as always!
Have a wonderful weekend, sweetie!

Morning Sam! One of my fav "frills" from yours, your words are pure pearls of wisdom, I have been caught from them and especially from the last phrase. I think is something you learn in life once you are older, in a society where appearance, beauty and wealth rule, try to be yourself is an everyday challenge and if you are different you are soon isolated. I think is an important topic in schools where bullish behaviours are really common and often can cause deep inner pain. Once you grow up, you learn that being different with an own personality is better that be alike everyone. Another thing you learn is to not make any comparison with others life cause most of the time you never know how hard or easy is their life, the only person who need to beat is the one we are yday!:) Thanks Sam for your feedback, you know never tried MAC as foundation, I know, shame on me!!:) Have a great weekend dear, hugs! xo
The photo is marvelous. I know all of that but it's great to be reminded from time to time that it is completely okay to be imperfect. Have a happy Friday Sam!!!

love the quote and the tutu :) this is also my everyday struggle its nice to know that were all on this together :D
So true! Instead of being influenced by and comparing ourselves to others, we should just compete with ourselves. Have a great weekend!
I always love and appreciate your Friday Frills Sam darling. Thanks for the inspiration always. xx/Madison :)
I had a problem with this when I was younger, but not now. It's important to be yourself and true to you.

I love that you took different quotes and edited them together. I've always loved that song "live right now and just be yourself. It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else"
Such a great message! I've been learning this more and more the last few years and enjoyed letting go and being true to myself :)

Brilliant reminder! Love this post.
Dearest Sam, thanks again that you have chosen so true words! Just yesterday I had a consultancy with a woman and I told her exactly the same what you wrote above - that it´s the most important thing in our life to be the own person and to live this life which makes the own person happy <3
And as usual the pictures is the perfect confirmation of your words!
Hope you are fine and it´s not to cold in SA! Here the wonderful summer continues and I´m so happy that I´m sitting at this time (8.00 pm) outside on our terrace, because mostly it´s much to cold to sit outside in the evening.
Wish you a wonderful and happy weekend, dearest Sam!
