PERSONAL PHILOSOPHIES
There are 2 philosophies in life that I try to follow.

The first philosophy is by William Shakespeare. He wrote the famous line "to thyne own self be true". For a person to be happy, he has to know himself and be himself. Pretending to be anyone different will only bring unhappiness.

The second philosophy that I try to follow is from the writings of Mark Twain. He wrote "A friend is someone you know everything about and still like." You have to accept other people as they are and be able to enjoy other people as themselves. 

Combined, these words of wisdom mean to me:
Be yourself and let others be themselves.
