Be Yourself, Everyone Else is Taken

The current title of my blog is also the title of this blogpost: "Be yourself, everyone else is taken." -Oscar Wilde. I chose this quote as the title of my blog because it can really touch some people, as it did me. There are many people out there who feel insecure about the people they are, and wish they could be like someone else, or are willing to trade places with that person. This is a horrible way to feel and leave people feeling sick and unhappy with themselves. But the truth is, trying to be like someone else is just wasting the person you are, and some people never realize that. We are all who we are for a reason, and we've all got our place in the world. This quote really makes sense, and the words are stringed together in perfect harmony to help bring Oscar Wilde's point across.

I also like how Oscar Wilde made us seem very individual, unique, the way his quote went. Like we're something to search for, to buy, to want. His wording was excellent, and those are the reasons why this quite was chosen as the title of my blog. Thanks for reading!
