align="center">How to be true to you
>How to be true to you, it is not a question which can be answered easily. To me, it costs energy and time, maybe a lifetime to be true to myself.
>I had been with my friend Tom when a pretty girl approached to us one morning, she asked for Tom to be the leader of a new peace group she was organizing. She explained why the group had to be built and how deadly she wanted his help. I must admit it really touchy when she said with her sweet sound: "sir, we absolutely need your lead. Will you give us your hand!" knowing this man's sympathies, I guessed he would agree to serve. But to my astonish, he rejected her request and said: "yes, it's really a vital concern and worthy of all your passion, but it's yours, not mine."
>Every certain yes we say requires many a firm no. the challenge for all of us is to find those few causes that are peculiarly our own and then to embrace them with all our heart. If you imagine trying to solve all the world's problems in one minute, you are likely to quit before you finish rolling up your sleeves. But if you settle on a manageable number of causes, then you might accomplish a lot before you know, all the while trusting that others elsewhere are working faithfully in their own places.
>By remaining faithful to a calling, we can create the conditions for finding a purpose and a pattern in our days. Then to keep true to ourselves whatever it costs!
