My own journey towards authenticity has now become interwoven with my work as a photographer. Yet what is authenticity and why should one seek it out? I have collected some quotes that will point us in the right direction.
Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be, and embracing who we really are. Jeff Foster
Being authentic is fully embracing the fact that I am perfectly imperfect. Unknown
This above all; To thine own self be true. William Shakespeare
Be yourself. The world worships an original. Ingrid Bergman
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. Bernard Baruch
Authenticity is the path towards self love and acceptance. It is the way to creating the life of your dreams. Every human being is amazing and has something unique to contribute to humanity, to the world.
When we are authentic, we can let our light shine. We can let go of the false self, and all the limiting beliefs that we have accrued growing up, without identifying with them.
In our pure essence, we are magical beings on a magical journey. All of us.
