Have you ever wondered who you really are? The actual truth about you? Sure, you could ask your friends, your mom, your boss -- but you'd get different answers from each of them. The truth about you is so much bigger than you could possibly imagine.

1. Who are you really?

2. Well, that depends who you ask.

3. Your boss sees you one way,

4. your mother another.

5. Your friends love you;

6. your enemies, not so much.

7. Your dog can’t get enough of you,

8. but what do you think of you?

9. You see, everyone, including you, is just
looking at an image of you.

10. In fact, what other people think of you is
THEIR business, not yours.
You can influence, but not completely control,
the way people see you.

11. But back to the original question: who you
are really?

12. You are more than what people think of you.

13. You are more than what YOU think of you.

14. You are more than your job,
more than your relationships,
more than your carbon footprint.

15. In fact, the truth about you is so big,
there are no words to describe it, no
clichés or witty quotes that can fully
capture it.

16. Don’t confuse self-image, or the perceptions
of others, with the truth about who you really
are. It’s usually a very poor substitute.

17. You can discover the real you in quiet
moments,

18. in times of struggle,

19. and in seasons of joy.

20. The real you is always joyful. Your pain and
fear is merely an illusion. When you discover
layers of laughter and love, you’ve found the
truth about who you are.

21. Enjoy the journey.
