Inspired by lyrics to “Still Yourself” by Richard Mekdeci and Mario Friedel
“Your path is true. There’s a guiding light that shines inside of you.”
“Still yourself. Still yourself. In the silence you will find your way.”
“Still yourself. Still yourself. Still yourself and heal yourself.
The strength you seek is just a breath away.”
“Strength flows from stillness like a fountain,
Like a mountain against the sky.” I am still and I am strong.
