How does one truly reveal what they want from themselves? You may want to be an actor, perhaps an author? No matter what it is, you’re true to it and are determined to act on it. No matter if you were “born with it”, no matter what people’s opinion of your expertise in it, that doesn’t matter. What matters is acting on it, the only one who is going to help you do so, is yourself. Your beloved friends, family, and supporters can promote and cheer you on in achieving what your heart most desires, but you are the only real reason it can ever be so.

Hardly anyone successful can say it was the result of sheer dumb luck, and counting on luck, will get you nothing. If it hasn’t happened yet, don’t kid yourself. Make it happen, you exist because you want to exist. Any person could commit suicide, but they choose not to. There has to be some reason you’re here, if there wasn’t, you wouldn’t be! The difficult step is discovering what that reason actually is. It’s in all of us, and in you. As you read this, that deep emotion, that powerful ability is glowing deep inside your heart. But how do you find it?

Think about this. What makes you individual from the rest of the world? What relates you to the rest of the world? Depending on what it is you ask of yourself, these can be the key’s to unveiling your true meaning to existence. The great thing about it is, you hold the power to let it be whatever it is you want it to become! Anything! All you have to do is discover your true self. For some it may be easy, for some it can seem impossible. I myself, feel it extremely hard to let it out, and let it be clear to my mind, for that is the problem. In my case, nothing comes to mind. One day soon, I hope to reveal it to myself, before it may be too late to act on it. Time slips away much too fast to one day, when your chance is no longer held dear to you, say “Damn... why didn’t I-“.

No matter how hard you have to search, never give up on yourself. Find what it is you possess, and make it a reality. You have the power; anyone who exists can make anything exist. Now get out there and discover it! Discover, who you truly are.

Hey =]

Welcome to YWS! I'm Dudette :D

Wow, this piece made me smile. It's so optimistic - well, the overall concept anyway.

I so have days when I think, 'why am I writing? It's not like anything will come of it,' but then I think to myself, 'how do I know that for sure?'

I couldn't really find any gramatically wrong with it, but then that might be because I was enjoying reading it so much :)

You've definitely motivated me to write more of my story after reading this and I'm sure it will do the same for others!

Great job!
