You must not extinguish yourself so that others can shine

You must not extinguish yourself so that others can shine. You don't need to tone down your voice or disguise the intensity of your soul to fit into spaces that were not created for you.

There are too many people who have become echoes out of fear of rejection, sacrificing their truth just to be accepted. You must not become a shadow of who you really are.

If your soul burns, let it burn. If within you blows a strong wind, let it blow hard. Your fire is not a mistake; it is your way of illuminating the world.

You must not offer your essence to make more comfortable those who are not ready to look it in the face. Because whoever can't handle your intensity, doesn't deserve your tenderness either.

Being authentic can sometimes hurt, but living in disguise always causes more suffering. You must remain what you are: fire, truth and voice.

Even if you make some people uncomfortable and not everyone understands, those who have an awakened soul will appreciate your light.

In a world that often seeks conformity, it is essential that each individual maintains his or her authenticity and shines with his or her own light.
