They may come from different sources, different people, different contexts, at times it is even unpredictable to tell where the next one will come from. And there you are, struggling to understand what you have done wrong, if you ever did something wrong. You get full of questions, worries and fears of not being accepted, of not being acting as the society requires you to, of not being enough. Fear makes us vulnerable and vulnerability is an uncomfortable sensation with which no one would like to live. Then, we start building up walls and shields to protect ourselves and attack when we feel the need to.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cb1d4c6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cb1d4c6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>But, is this how we really want to live?

Beauty lies in the tones of shades that develop from the two extremes and each one of us is the incredible representation of one of those billion shades. Just think how wonderful it would be if you could express yourself and help others do the same. How relieving and stress-releasing would it be? We shouldn\u2019t build walls nor shields anymore, we shouldn\u2019t be constantly defending ourselves from what we perceive as external attack, we wouldn\u2019t have nothing to hide, but just beauty to show.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e7dbe09 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e7dbe09\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>We have the power, today, to let this happen.
