There are a lot of things that I don’t like about myself. Those are also some of the things that other people like about me. I’ve recently realized that I need to just be myself to make myself and others happy. Just be you. Maybe your voice gets really loud when you get excited. Maybe your emotions change with the blink of an eye for no reason. Maybe you get frustrated with traffic, your hair, your kids yelling, your dog licking or the sound of someone chewing. Maybe you snort when you laugh. There are a ton of things that you might want to change about yourself, but don’t. Just be you.

Where did I read this : kids get confused when you tell them to be themselves because to them, who else could they be?
Be yourself because everyone else is taken. Not sure where I read that either.
