The truth is: Belonging starts with self-acceptance. Your level of belonging, in fact, can never be greater than your level of self-acceptance, because believing that you're enough is what gives you the courage to be authentic, vulnerable and imperfect.

The most basic human desire is to feel like you belong. Fitting in is important.

Being yourself is one of the greatest things you can possibly do. Being true to yourself.

Make sure that you always follow your heart and your gut, and let yourself be who you want to be, and who you know you are. And don't let anyone steal your joy.

You must begin to think of yourself as becoming the person you want to be.

I've never looked at myself and said that I need to be a certain way to be around a certain sort of people. I've always wanted to stay true to myself, and I've managed to do that. People have to accept that.

You have to surround yourself with people who love you and want the best for you.

Staying on the path of who you are and not trying to be anyone else is the key to anything you're doing.

I don't belong to anyone else but myself. I have to make my own decisions. Happiness is defined by me.

Don't let anyone tell you that you have to be a certain way. Be unique. Be what you feel.
