To thine own self . . .

William Shakespeare's character Hamlet said, "To thine own self be true, and it follows, as the night the day, thou canst not be false to any man."

What does that mean to you? To me it means that if I'm true to myself I'll be true to everyone in my life. The problem comes when we don't know what the truth is. Or when we know what the truth is, but don't have the courage the face it? Do you have a talent that you're dying to explore, but you're scared to venture out? Be true to yourself. Find out what you truly enjoy, find your passion and develop it.

    It's true wisdom that is ageless. Just want to tell you that it wasn't Hamlet who said it, but the character of Polonius to his son Laertes.

    Be well!
