Be Your Self Poem by YAKUBU GIWA

A person who imitates is known for nothing of his own. Therefore always try to be your-self. Being what you are is the first step towards becoming who you are. In trying to be someone else all you can become is the second best. It is better to be hated for who you are than to be loved for who you are not. He who has a opinion of his own but depends on others is a slave. If you don’t have a plan for your life you’ll be part of another person’s plan. Therefore be yourself because the future belongs to those who see possibilities before they become obvious.
