OURSELVES

One of the toughest battles in life are the internal battles. Although YOU might seem normal, there is a constant disagreement within YOUR head. The opinion of what YOU believe others think is the root to these self-consciousness. 

Its questions like these that use to roam through MY head:
Does MY outfit match?
Is MY hair out of place?
Am I smart enough to be here?
Are people looking at ME?
WHY DO I WORRY ABOUT SIMPLE THINGS SUCH AS THESE?

The way I carry MYSELF on the outside is totally different than what I truly think about MYSELF. So why do I try and act like everything is fine? Why do I act differently than what I really am? The fear of not fitting in.

In all reality, it's not what others think. It's about what I think about MYSELF. If I feel like there is nothing wrong with ME, others will think that also. Its not about fitting in with others, its about how others fit in with ME. It's not about what I wear or how I look, it's about my confidence in MYSELF. Being comfortable with MYSELF is what makes others feel comfortable around ME. If I don't know MYSELF, how would I expect others to understand and accept ME? Real friends will try to relate to ME and at least try to understand ME. so why try to impress others who do not want to try and understand ME? 

MY advice is to spend time with YOURSELf. Learn new things about YOURSELF. Learn to love YOURSELF, and never worry about what others think. Being YOURSELF is what makes YOU unique; its what makes YOU an individual. People will appreciate YOU being YOU. No I'm not saying do not try and make new friends. SURE GO FOR IT! BUT DO NOT change YOURSELF to aim to keep them satisfied. Being YOU is what makes you YOU!!!!!!!!!! People will love YOU for who YOU are!!
