Be yourself

"Go with the flow", "Want to be popular? Follow what we do" and "I want to be just like him/her". Almost everyone wants to be like someone they idolize or admire and sometimes to please other or not to be left behind. The question is why should we?

I mean I'm not denying the fact certain days I also wonder what it would be like to be someone else or look like just her. I'm a plain Jane but after manys years of discovering my identity, I know the person I want to be is myself. I'm not perfect in fact I'm no where near perfection but i like being me.

Everyone has set a certain standards for themselves in so many aspects like friends, lovers, bestfriends or even teachers. However how many of us have realized that by doing this we are being judgemental and is it actually our place to do that. i don't deny I've done that even today i still do but i'm always trying harder to improve this bad habit of mine.

If I really want to be honest, I like being crazy, goofy, loud and nutty wherever I am and trust me if you don't believe me ask my friends. I'm hard to keep up with especially when I'm around people I'm comfortable with. My younger girlfriends come up to me saying you're so hype and you're fun and some say i wish i could be like you.

Well to those girls, don't be instead try finding you're crazy self stop being someone just be yourself and believe in you and nobody else cause if i can; you can too. Just a day ago i told my friend to not fit in but be herself. stick out like a sore thumb if thats you cause being and individual is what makes us all special and it keeps the world as interesting as it can always get.

So shine like the bright star you are and love yourself because nobody can love you as much as you can love yourself. We all have flaws but if we believe in ourself we can make them beautiful.
