"Tancuj, jako by tě nikdo neviděl, Miluj, jako by ti nikdy nikdo neublížil, Zpívej, jako by tě nikdo neslyšel, A žij, jako bys měl zítra zemřít." — Oscar Wilde

AUTHENTICITY
"Dance as if no one is watching you,
Love as if no one has ever hurt you,
Sing as if no one can hear you,
And live as if you were to die tomorrow."
— Oscar Wilde

Be yourself under all circumstances. It doesn’t matter what others think of you; what truly matters is what you think of yourself.

Only you know what has motivated you in the past and what motivates you now. Others may believe they know you and have the right to judge you, but in reality, they know nothing. They don’t know your story, and their judgment is nothing but a projection of their own imagination. And the truth is—it’s not about you, it’s about them. When they judge you, they reveal nothing but how they themselves might act in that situation. Whether they really would act that way, no one can say. Talking is always easier than doing. We all think we know how others should live, but we often don’t know how to live our own lives.

We wear masks and play roles just to be accepted by others. We fear rejection, and so we stop being ourselves. But we did not come here to live other people’s lives—we came to live our own. Let’s not forget: we came into this world alone, and we will leave it alone. That’s why it truly doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks of us. We are all here only for ourselves. Each of us is the creator of our own life, and how it will look is nobody else’s concern. What matters most is that it is ours.
