BE YOU – BE DIFFERENT

Many of us spend our lives taking on abnormal and uncomfortable shapes in the hopes of being accepted by others. We do this in order to meet their expectations or avoid conflicts. And in doing so, we fail to recognize what we deeply desire for ourselves and what is true in our own hearts.

If you try so hard to fit in, you miss out on all the benefits of going out and truly being yourself – that person who comes out when no one is looking, when your guard is down – that's you. And the good news is, we're all waiting for you to do it. Even if we don't say it out loud, we really want to know what the real you looks like, sounds like, and acts like. We want you to do it so we can see how easy it is for us to do it too. Let it shine!

Filmed in Barrydale, South Africa.
