Never Change Yourself
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you someone else is the greatest accomplishment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
You are you! Never change yourself; there's no need
Not even your flaws, my friend. Never change your ways
The stain in your personality stays the way it stays
Even if you scrub it with soap and wire brush, until your fingers bleed!
