BE YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF AND NOTHING ELSE

                                  WHAT IS YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF?  WHO DARES BE AUTHENTIC?  POPEYE?  I AM WHAT I AM,SAID POPEYE.  HE HAD SPINACH AND OLIVE OIL.  HE WAS POPEYE THE SAILOR MAN.  HE LIVED IN A TUNA FISH CAN OR SOMETHING.  HE HAD MUSCLES AND BEAT UP A LOT OF PEOPLE.  I GUESS THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU BECOME AUTHENTIC.  HMMMM!
                                    AND NOTHING ELSE IS QUITE DEFINITE.  CONVENTIONALITY IS TABOO.  DO YOU OBEY THE LAW?  OR MAKE YOUR OWN LAWS?  ONE OF THE MOST AUTHENTIC PEOPLE ON EARTH IS NO DRAMA PRESIDENT OBAMA.  STILL HE KNOWS TO COMPROMISE OR SEEM TO COMPROMISE TO GET HIS WAY.  

O-O-O-O-O-OH POPEYE

                                    CAN YOU REALLY BE TOTALLY AUTHENTIC AND SURVIVE?  ISN'T  LIFE A LOT OF GIVE AND TAKE AND TURNING THE OTHER CHEEK?  OTHERWISE YOU BETTER HAVE MUSCLES AND BE READY TO FIGHT LIKE POPEYE.  WHY DID HIS EYE POP OUT LIKE THAT?  DID HE LOSE A FIGHT?  NEVER.  POPEYE WAS HIS AUTHENTIC SELF AND NOTHING ELSE EVEN WHEN OLIVE OIL SAID:  OH POPEYE!
