SELF-EXPRESSION & WHY IT’S SO IMPORTANT

Self-expression is what shows the world you are more than just a robot- more than a mere blank slate of a person who lives their life in a bucket of grey. Yet, for some reason, people are scared to express themselves. They allow society to instill fear in them. To turn them away from being who they truly are because they’re afraid of the world’s judgement. 

But this is your life. Why should you limit yourself because of what somebody else thinks? Who knows, that same judgemental person could also be suppressing a part of themself. Shunning you while simultaneously shunning their own being.

How ironic is that? Societal pressures have influenced so many to appeal to the masses- even if that means sacrificing their interests, goals, or habits.

We only have one life, so why spend it all trying to appease people you don’t even know? This is your life, and you have the right to pursue happiness- to pursue your dreams, and you’ll only be able to do that if you act accordingly and be truest to your being without fearing judgment.

Self-expression is so important because it brings colour and personality to our day-to-day lives. It gives us tailored experiences related to who we are and allows us to feel free to chase our dreams without restriction because we are wholly ourselves and not focused on other people’s perceptions.

Block out the outside noise. That is when you’ll feel at your best and be truly able to live the life you need.
