You are what you are and you do what you do. Roses are the perfect example of how something can be beautiful, dangerous or both. There are tons of different reasons to act a certain way or put on a different mask due to our surrounding either personal or professional. Changing the words we use or the tact in which we present them is all good and well. The only thing that matters is that we stay true to the intent of who we are. Understanding your audience is important, especially when you are your own audience and looking at who exactly you really are and what’s in your heart. End the year knowing who you are so you know exactly where you’re starting on the path to a better version of yourself.
