These all comprise of who you are and it means you convey who you truly are to others.

It is often followed by an infinitive without "to":

So if you’re feeling more motivated (and slightly entrepreneurial), blogging may be just what you’re looking for. There seems to be a large variety in the usage of "dare". This is made obvious in the OED where we read: "The original third person singular ’he dare’ and past tense ’durst’, remained undisturbed to the modern period, in which the transitive senses were developed; but early in the 16thCentury, the new forms ’dares’ and ’dared’ appeared in the south, and are always used in the transitive sense, and now also in the intransitive sense when followed by ’to’. In the original construction, followed by the infinitive without ’to’, ’dare’ and ’durst’ are still in common use (especially in the negative ’he dare not’, ’he durst not’); and most writers prefer ’he dare go’ or ’he dares to go’ to ’he dares go’. The northern dialects generally retain ’he dare, he durst’, and writers of northern extraction favour their retention in literary English when followed by the simple infinitive without ’to’".

Music allows you to get both lost and found in the melody, lyrics, and the overall feeling of getting to express what needs to be said through sound and music. Music can make you feel everything, all at once, and that’s what’s so beautiful and extraordinary about it. They say music speaks what words can’t, and this is an accurate statement. Music is a common way to express yourself, whether it’s through playing an instrument or singing a song. Beside this preterite which Jespersen calls "preterite of indirect speech", there is the "preterite of reality". This is where grammarians do not agree with each other. The OED states that there is one case when "must" can be used as a preterite without being part of a subordinate clause: "As a past or historical present tense, ’must’ is sometimes used satirically or indignantly with reference to some foolish or annoying action or some untoward event." I always have mad respect for chefs – or anyone that knows how to mix spices and flavors together like a potion. Read on to discover the significant benefits of speaking your mind and helpful ways to get started.

Must" is used as a present tense, and, under certain conditions, as a preterite. It is one of a separate group of anomalous verbs which is formed, according to Poutsma, "by the so-called preterite-present verbs, characterized by not having a personal ending in the third person singular of what is now used as a present, viz. can, dare, may, must, shall, will. Except for "dare", they are all of them defective in not having an imperative, nor any of the verbals". 4 It can also be regarded as one of a small group of verbs, including "need" and "dare", "which have in various ways become partly or completely identical in the two tenses, present and preterite, and which have also to some extent the function as ’auxiliaries’ in common". 5 The sewage matter … goes along a sewer which must carry it into the stream, unless it is intercepted on the way. ( OED) Statements containing minimizing adverbs such as: barely, hardly, only, but, scarcely, seldom, solely, rarely: Writing music might sound daunting – but hear me out, because it’s an extremely rewarding and creative adventure to go on. What you choose to wear can reflect the essence of who you are. Fashion is the most underrated and unappreciated form of art today, but your outfit represents your mood.

He is not content with a ring and a bracelet, but he must have rings… everywhere. (Wordsworth, OED) This raises the problem of a possible difference of meaning between the two forms. Here is how Dwight L.Bolinger, in an article published in Vol.4 of College English, approaches the problem: I’ve accumulated a myriad of valuable skills, learned tons about myself and become way more creative. To summarize all this, we could say that "must" as a preterite occurs, not in completely independent sentences, but in sentences with given situations, i.e. usually in clauses subordinate not only in form but in sense. The problem then remains to determine whether sentences including "must" are completely independent sentences, or sentences where the verb is subordinate in thought to a verb in past time, or sentences in the virtual oblique narration, showing not a fact, but the speaker’s thought or soliloquy. In many cases it is almost impossible to determine in which sense the writer or speaker has used the expression. This may explain to a certain extent the differences of opinion among grammarians as to this or that particular example. So one can easily imagine that the problem of the preterite use of ’must’ will be something of an inexhaustible source of discussion, unless some grammarians find an adequate theory of the modal auxiliary verbs which will provide a means of settling a problem that seems insoluble on the level of discourse. NEED My mouth was so dry, I must wet it with seawater before I was able to shout. (Stevenson, Kidnapped, p.14)

DIY Projects This is especially the rule in the preterite indicative in subordinate clauses, especially subordinate statements, in negative contexts: Self-expression doesn’t come naturally to everyone as it takes a certain level of vulnerability and transparency to be able to fully express yourself. If you aren’t aware of where the concept of self-expression revolves around, it’s the act of expressing your thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and everything you consider to be a reality. The use of "must" as a present (or future) does not seem to have caused any concern among grammarians. The same can be said of some of its uses as a preterite. Most grammarians seem to agree with the OED that, in modern use, "must" as a past tense is "confined to instances of oblique narration, and of the virtual oblique narration in which the speaker has in his mind what might have been said or thought at the time." In other words, when the clause containing ’must’ is subordinate either actually or in thought:Words are the most powerful way to express who you are, which is why you can easily express in writing everything you can’t say out loud. Words leave a significant mark, especially when it represents your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. But, according to Jespersen and many others before him and after, the sentence of the type just mentioned are not the only ones where "must" is used as a preterite. Jespersen expressly states that "though this dictum of the great authority is, of course, substantially true, some examples of ’must’ to denote a real past time have been collected by Stoffel". 7 C.Schulze went even farther and stated that the use of "must" as a preterite of reality is "far from being rare or obsolete", that "it occurs much more often than ’was (were) obliged, forced, etc." and is deliberately used to express all shades of the notion of necessity. 8 Actually, learning to dance has been a low-key goal of mine for a little while now – once I can carve out some time in my schedule…
