    The document discusses how true belonging does not require changing who you are. While people often try hard to fit in and please others, this can be an exhausting way to belong. True belonging happens when you stop seeking acceptance from others and understand that you don't need to change yourself to fit in, but can simply be yourself. For example, third culture kids who constantly travel do not try hard to make friends but still find their place. In the end, being your authentic self is most important, as there will always be people who support and accept you as you are.

    True belonging doesn't require you to change who you are

    I once believed that technology was going to bring us together as a global


    community. I thought we would draw closer as it turns out, we are more polarized
    than ever before.We are all searching for a place to fit in. If we don’t find our place
    it can be a painful existence.It’s possible to be welcomed into a club or
    organization and still feel like an outcast. Sometimes people feel angry for the
    effort required to “fit in” and please others.It can often take a lot of time and
    energy to belong to something or someone. But what happens when we stop
    trying so hard to belong? Suppose we stop seeking acceptance from others? This
    is when true being happens that's when we really are what we are. This feeling is
    the feeling when you finally understand that you don't to do what people like to
    "fit in" but just to be yourself.

    In my opinion, changing who you are to be liked by people is just an unnecessary


    need. it's better to show who truly you are so they can undestand who you are.
    Surely some people will like you and the other will not that's where you can find
    your real friends. So they can help you on things that you didn't even know you
    needed help. An example that show that you do not need to be changed is TCK
    (Third Culture Kid), most TCKs are constantly traveling and therefore do not try to
    make friends. However, because of their culture it happens that, they are
    sometimes criticized by others. People who are still trying to make friends will
    learn how to take courage in their owns hand so they can shameless and find they
    true belonging. The critics will only make them stronger.

    At the end you will understand that you don't need to change yourself to be liked
    by others. No matter if you get criticized or judge what's the most important in all
    of that is that you don't need to change just be yourself, there will be always
    someone to help you , cheer you or even love you. Because you are YOU and one
    day you are the one that will help them.
