Who You Are Is Who You Are

Who you are is who you are!


Who you are is who you are and you  should be  respected as yourself and  because God made you  that way so  it is who you are you are of value.

The things of your person is who you are  
your face , your eyes , your teeth your  hands and feet are yours and that is who you are

no one has  right  to harm who you are

What you say is who you are 

if you speak oracles and have eloquent speech or if you speak ebonics and stutter then that is who you are

you have a voice to be heard

Where you go is who you are 

If you like to fish or go to the club or  if you like to visit  friends and travel then that is who you are 

you have a right to enjoy life to the fullest

The company  that you keep is who you are

If  you prefer  people  who  are white collar or blue collar  and people who wear beautiful dresses  than that is who you are  or  if I like people  who wear cut off  shorts  and flips flops  and brims   then that is who you are

you have a right to choose

How you conceptualize  or meditate  is who you are but if you ignore  things  and brush things off then that is who you are

life is a challenge and you have a right to embrace it on your own level

Who you are is fine with me because I like who you are and sometimes you are just like me
