#authentic

The aim of every authentic artist is not to conform to the history of art, but to release himself from it in order to replace it with his own history. ↗

Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depend on simplicity – I mean the true simplicity of a rightly and nobly ordered mind and character, not that other simplicity which is only a euphemism for folly. ↗

Consider the fact that maybe…just maybe…beauty and worth aren’t found in a makeup bottle, or a salon-fresh hairstyle, or a fabulous outfit. Maybe our sparkle comes from somewhere deeper inside, somewhere so pure and authentic and REAL, it doesn’t need gloss or polish or glitter to shine. ↗

Authenticity is what makes a relatable person believable. It is what makes the relatability sustainable. Anyone can fake relatability for a time, but authenticity is what makes it real. ↗

Authenticity empowers communication. ↗

#communication

Often misconstrued, authenticity is not about being an open book, revealing every detail of yourself without rhyme or reason. It is simply the act of openly and courageously seeing what needs to be seen, saying what needs to be said, doing what needs to be done, and becoming that which you are intent on being. ↗

— Scott Edmund Miller

#courage

Your truest spiritual path will lead you to yourself for it is devoted to becoming. ↗

A lot of the conflict you have in your life exists simply because you're not living in alignment; you're not be being true to yourself. ↗
