Everyone is an individual. What that means is that you are
unique. Just because people dress alike or eat at the same place, does not mean
that they are all the same. Though I do understand that some people will do
anything to try and fit in and be like the norm.
Well, the truth is that there are just some people out there
that don’t fit in. They are who they are and they are not ashamed of it. It is
okay to be an individual. I know that many people may make you feel like it isn't but you are allowed to be yourself. It is okay to walk to the beat of
your own drum, it is okay to dress in a way that makes you feel comfortable, it
is okay to listen to the music you want to listen to and it is okay to think
the way that you do (as long as you are not hurting anyone or anything, of
course).
I have had people try and change me all my life and to be
honest, trying to please everyone all the time is not worth it and you waste
far too much energy in the process. Just be yourself and those people who are
worthy, will give you a chance and will accept you for who you are. Those who
don’t, well, don’t worry about them, as their opinion or acceptance is not
worth wasting your time on anyway.
Individuality is the key to awesomeness. Great post.

Being 'individual' has got me into trouble sometimes....!
ReplyDeleteBeing true to yourself is important. You can't please everyone.

S.L. Hennessy - Thank you and your words are so true.
ReplyDeleteMadelineAnn - I know what you mean. I still get in trouble for being myself. But at least we are ourselves, right?
Jai - Brilliant quote! I love this and you are so right. Being yourself is so much more fun.
