The world we live in today is filled with too many duplicates and uncertainty that has also stylishly strolled into the very vein of humans. We fail to understand the importance of being just no one but ourselves.
Go back and take a look at the quote again, "To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight and never stop fighting."
How in the hell would you want to be someone else when uniquely and blessed, the Almighty God created you for your own purpose?
Has man's acceptance of himself lost all importance in the state of things? Will you rather be a man without a face than a man with a face you know?
Anonymity never truly has its place in the state of affairs a man strives to achieve.
You must be first, a person before you become an anonymous entity because without that, you will never find the divide between what is real and what isn't and then, what the world wants you to be and believe is real.
Many think the hardest battle is one of survival, not knowing it is one that involves them striving tirelessly to become a cardinal part of someone else's bread crumb trail that leads to nowhere rewarding for them.
Since I joined Steemit, I have had many persons pray to be like Ned Scott or Dan Larimer, some have even prayed and fasted to be like Mark Zuckerberg and you and i know that is not EVER gonna happen.
I do not want to be anybody because it is their identity; I am happy I am ME and want to keep being me. Being me is the reason why I have been able to find time to do something meaningful for community because, I stopped fighting the hardest battle even before I was born into mother earth. I stopped fighting to be You and stayed comfortable with being ME.
What is the most important aspect of that individual's life that makes you think you need to stop being you? Are you making the best of your time finding the real you?
Life is made of various persons and substances and when one fails to function as they are created to, there always is a lag in the fabric of existence that takes time to fill.
Be you and do not be me. Stop fighting the hardest battle and make the world come alive with your script.
